Even though there is a Scratch project website where the Scratch community uploads its projects, there is also an alternative method to embed Scratch within your own website. Since TeachMeProgramming.com is also teaching HTML5, we are happy to show you how to embed your Scratch applet using HTML5. Read on to find out more.
Why HTML5? Haven't we had a stable version of HTML for the last decade? Well, we did, but like all technologies, we need to supply and demand based on the changing landscape of the future in Web computing. HTML5 is the next standard for Hyper Text Markup Language and it is supposed to be more robust than its predecessor, HTML 4.01.
Not only can children learn how to program, but learning web programming with HTML5 and CSS and following strict rules governed by XHTML is attainable. If your child is comfortable with English, is confident in typing and savvy with the computer, then he/she is off to a great start!
