Overview

Get started coding with a hands-on car that you can code- Code Car! Code Car is an all-inclusive circuit board that has 4 programmable LED lights, a speaker, and 4 buttons built-in. All you need to do is plug it in, download our free software, and get started learning!

You control the code, so you can take the Code Car’s features as far as you’d like. There are thousands of possible projects you can create with the skills you’ll learn from the guided lessons.

Guided Lessons

Start by turning on Code Car’s headlight, then ‘drive’ through 14 guided lessons that add features to Code Car while you learn real coding. Concepts covered include loops, if-else statements, inputs vs. outputs, and for loops.

Every lesson has walkthrough videos that break down the code line-by-line so you’re never left to search the web for explanations. Challenges on each lesson page help push you to the next level and put your new skills to use!

Hack the Car

Ready to dive right in? Visit the ‘Hack the Code Car’ page to tinker with the full-featured Code Car. A video will guide you through how each line of code works, then it’s up to you to explore! Perfect for those who would rather tinker than be taught.
