That’s only one way to code, for beginners. You can code with raw text too. Try the simulator here: http://microbit.co.uk

A really clever thing about the #microbit: there’s nothing to install - it’s a USB drive and you just copy binaries onto it and it runs them

And the #microbit website will generate the binaries as downloads for you from your code, so you don’t even need to install the compiler.

Nice. Looks like a hyperbolic surface.
