Launch HN: Scrimba (YC S20) – Interactive video for learning to code Hi all, I’m Per, co-founder of Scrimba. We are building an interactive video format for teaching and learning how to code. The main benefit is that students can pause the video and edit the code whenever they want. We think this is needed is because over 70% of people who are trying to learn to code today use videos. But since videos aren’t interactive, students end up mirroring the instructors’ code line-by-line in their local code editors. This is time consuming, and it often causes problems with local dev environment setup. Scrimba solves these problems as it enables students to pause the screencast and modify the instructors’ code directly inside the player. So when a Scrimba student feels confused, she jumps into the screencast and plays around with the code (editing, running, debugging) until she’s made sense of it. As a consequence, she learns faster. Technically, this is possible because we have merged the IDE...
