ABOUT PYTHON GO

The purpose-built Trinket alternative for schools

I am Mark Reed, the lead developer and founder of Python Go.

My journey began in the software industry, where I specialized in graphical and CAD programming using C++. With a background in games programming, I have applied those high-performance principles to create a fast, responsive coding environment.

After moving into education as a Computer Science teacher, I spent years watching students struggle with unintuitive, clunky online Python environments. Many of these tools are clearly designed by people who have never experienced the unique challenges of a 30-student computer lab.

I built Python Go to solve that problem. It is the streamlined, high-performance tool I always wished I had while standing at the front of the classroom.

Students can use Python Go seamlessly in the classroom and then continue their projects at home on the same platform they use at school.

The platform makes assessment simple: students can submit work via share links, and teachers can embed read-only iFrames into VLE pages on platforms such as Firefly.

It is easy to get started—simply claim your free 21-day trial to see how Python Go can transform coding in your school.
