Welcome to the KidCode Visual Interpreter community! 🎨 KidCode is an educational programming language designed to teach coding fundamentals through visual, interactive learning with our friendly turtle "Cody." As an educational project that aims to inspire young minds and make programming accessible to learners of all ages, we are committed to fostering a supportive, inclusive, and encouraging environment.

Our community includes educators, students, parents, developers, and anyone passionate about making programming education fun and accessible. We believe that learning should be joyful, collaborative, and free from barriers that might discourage participation.

We as members, contributors, and leaders pledge to make participation in the KidCode Visual Interpreter 🎨 in our community a harassment-free experience for everyone, regardless of:

• Ethnicity
• Sex characteristics
• Gender identity and expression
• Level of experience
• Education
• Socio-economic status
• Nationality
• Personal appearance
• Race
• Religion, or sexual identity and orientation

We pledge to act and interact in ways that contribute to an open, welcoming, diverse, inclusive, and healthy community.
