Visual Coding in the Real World

Node-based visual coding, used on Elementari, is a method applied in the real world to create popular games and movies. For example:

Unreal Engine: Used for games like Fortnite, Kingdom Hearts 3, and Rocket League.
Unity: The engine behind Pokemon Go and many other games.
Houdini: Utilized for animated movies like Moana and Frozen.
Massive: Employed in creating large battle scenes in Game of Thrones and Lord of the Rings.

Coding for Kids

You can start by creating a simple slideshow or digital storytelling book without needing any coding. However, coding adds a unique layer of storytelling. Many of our interactive lessons include basic coding and guide students step-by-step through learning how to code - from adding animations, voiceovers, different endings, and other interactions.

Using music and sound effects

Pick background music or sound effects from the Play Music and Play Sound Effect blocks, and add them to your projects.

Using variables

You can create variables to store a value and are shared across every page. These are useful to make your projects more dynamic and interactive for the readers ! In Elementari, we use 3 types of variables:

Using logic and conditions blocks

The logic and conditions blocks are used to compare variables and values, do calculations with numbers, and work with strings (text).
