MakeBot
1.4.2Python IDE designed for students to start programming quickly.
Overview
MakeBot is a simple IDE for Python. It is designed to allow students to start programming as quickly and easily as possible.
For my Lunar Repair Yard course, I needed an IDE for students to use which was intuitive and quick to learn. The command line works well once you know how, but I wanted to have the absolutely shortest learning curve possible so my students could get to the fun stuff right away. The interface is simple and elegant, not covered with buttons and side panels so as to not confuse the subject: your program.
