Thanks for posting this - I'm the author of the piece in case anyone has any questions :)

I just came from another thread where another hacker was sharing how they are getting their kids into programming by teaching them how to make games (ie. starting with Scratch then moving upwards) so I wanted to share that a friend of mine used Playdate's Pulp editor to help my daughter learn game design and he said that he had a great experience. So all in all, big praise to the Panic team!
