step 1, 2, 3, 4

Spryte makes use of the highly intuitive and robust Python programming language, combining it with an assistive editor (IDE) for writing code. The user gets to explore computer algorithms as a creative medium, generating visual output, while at the same time learning the fundamentals of computer programming.

Having grasped Spryte, learning other programming languages is relatively easy. In fact, Spryte has been successfully used as precursor to teaching JavaScript, ActionScript, and PHP to graphic design students. more about Spryte
