About Codepip
We make games that help people learn to code.
Games and learning don’t have to be an either/or proposition. We believe that games can be one of the most effective ways to learn. If designed well, they provide a fun but challenging path to mastery.
The popularity of our first game, Flexbox Froggy, demonstrated a hunger for these kind of games in the web dev community. We followed that up with Grid Garden.
Now we are releasing many more games that teach HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and beyond, built through learner-centered design and informed by peer-reviewed research.
What’s in a name?
The ‘pip’ in Codepip refers to two things. One, the dots found on gaming objects like dominoes and dice. Two, the tiny seed that grows into a towering tree.
Who are we?
