Kennedy Kanyi, a former JKUAT student currently running Oneplace Technologies has launched BraceScript, a second level programming language targeted at kids to help them learn programming.
According to Kanyi, “BraceScript approaches programming concepts from a simple and fun to do point. The kids get to learn the importance of syntax as they enjoy creating things and drawing images and animations through code.”
Kanyi says that being a second level programming language, BraceScript rides on first level language frameworks like Python and Javascript and is basically simple syntax emulating complex syntax of first level languages simplified to help kids understand computer programming easily and fast.
Kanyi adds that Oneplace Technologies is working hard to develop more and more syntax to get as many kids interested in programming as possible.
