Hi Josh, I am not up on the kids programming language, but I know noone in the Pro development community uses it. I also seriously doubt it is as powerful as C#, C++, or Python. See my previous message, but I really don't recommend taking this route of using one of these unconventional languages for starting out. Use a fully qualified and well documented language.
