Hour of Code – an hour of coding for each
Hour of Code worldwide
Hour of Code is a global event accessible to everyone who wants to learn more about programming. In fact, the event aims to demystify the idea that programming is something difficult and that not everyone can have access to it. With tutorials translated into more than 40 languages, Hour of Code now takes place in over 180 countries. Worldwide, tens of millions of students and pupils have already experienced one hour of programming through this event. The beautiful part of this initiative is that anyone can take part, regardless of age or technological background.
Hour of Code in Romania, magic is here
Hour of Code has been present in Romania since 2014, reaching more than 45 cities. Here, it is supported by local public figures who have understood that programming—and technology in general—plays an important role in the development of local communities. Hour of Code usually takes place during the Computer Science Education Week and is brought to Romania by Adfaber, the only NGO in the country that supports community development and social change through technology. In order to be accessible to everyone, regardless of location or financial means, materials that do not require the use of a computer are also available.
Because we, the Toud team, believe in the role of education, we got involved and created the main Hour of Code landing page.
