As a computer science teacher, I was struggling to find a graphics framework for my students. Because my students all loved MIT’s Scratch, I heavily leaned on it for inspiration.<p>The result is an object-oriented graphic framework and IDE with built-in documentation, autocomplete, auto-run, and more!<p>While it was created with 11-year-olds in mind, I hope WoofJS will be useful to anyone making graphical experiences. You can use it to make games, animations and art.<p>One of our high school students made a version of Frogger: <a href="http://woofjs.com/create.html#Frogger" rel="nofollow">http://woofjs.com/create.html#Frogger</a><p>And another made a fun dodging game with emojis: <a href="http://woofjs.com/create#poop-emoji" rel="nofollow">http://woofjs.com/create#poop-emoji</a><p>We’re open source if you wanted to contribute :)<p><a href="https://github.com/stevekrouse/WoofJS" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/stevekrouse/WoofJS</a>
My feedback:<p>1. The site captures my keyboard and prevents me from using it to navigate my browser. This is a substantial accessibility issue.<p>2. Also curious about any pedagogical research behind WoofJS's development.
