The team at LiveCode has a simple mission: make app building and coding accessible and achievable for everyone. After raising $750,000 via Kickstarter, LiveCode's first project involved teaching app building skills to a group of complete beginners in Armenia. Over 90% of the participants built their own apps and started their own businesses after completing that course.

Though the world of coding can seem intimidating to outsiders and squeamish robots, this merry band of developers makes learning to code fun and engaging. LiveCode's courses and educational packs break down the creation of native mobile, desktop, and server applications into simple-to-follow visual workflows. The result is a quick and easy process suitable for everyone from students to employees at Fortune 500 companies, even those who have never coded before. No experience is necessary to start, since the program is less complicated than other programming tools and courses.
