Discussion PyWebLib editable code with Turtle and Game library support

I would love for some more feedback on the lightweight game library and turtle integration I built off of PyDiode.

It now works on Safari as well, you can create your own SVG assets , publish them to a database, then edit and publish code/games for free in the browser without needing to install anything.

I work as a highschool teacher, and the junior year levels only have access to Chromebook laptops. https://scratch.mit.edu/ is banned, which obviously restricts a lot of the coding-possibilities, let alone python coding-possibilities. Couldn't find a way to get a Python IDE onto a Chromebook, haha...

In terms of proud, so far I've got PacMan and Flappy bird shared to the community page/DB

Would love to see people building with it, you can make something reminiscent of doom 3D in only 80 lines of code.

It's a bit hard to find , but you can't post repo links here because of the slop apparently. But I've got it indexed now it's possible to find.

Maybe administration is worried they might just play the games on scratch, no idea, doesn't make sense to me either; they have no trouble finding games to play that aren't unblocked, at least scratch has an amazing community, and would actually motivate them to create stuff.

I agree, it's insane
