Hey #linux people and #developers, I need your advice.
My 8 year old son has fallen in love with this old laptop that honestly isn't useful for that much as the speed and wifi is so slow.
But he says he wants to learn how to code on it.
This brought me back to the days of GW-basic when I was a kid.
Is there something like gw or q basic for Linux. Something that would run on a 32 bit computer?
