Our story
Kids in this part of the world, coding early
Kidsthatcode (KTC) is an initiative that encourages kids and teens in this part of the world to start coding early. The reason behind this is to enhance the easy understanding of programming in them if they decide to take a career in software development later in the future.
What began as virtual classes with experienced software engineers has grown into code clubs in schools, hackathons, summer bootcamps, demo days and a community where kids learn, build and share.
