Ask HN: Resources for teaching 11yr old to code?
https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=16612607A friend reached out to me recently asking where I would suggest he go to help teach his 11 yr old daughter who wants to learn to code (He is a lawyer, so not going to be super helpful until she has to negotiate the mediocrity of corporate compliance and license requirements).
Frankly, i'm surprised how hard I'm finding this question to answer. I think part of if it is that I don't want to get it wrong, and the other half is that I love that we're talking about a young woman who wants to get into this field, so i double want to get it right!
So my ask, what would you suggest? People with first hand experience with kids here I'd love to hear from you!
