Trinket.io is shutting down.
I'm kind of bummed. It doesn't seem possible to spin up your own version on a local server so I need to decide what to do for fifth grade python programming by the end of the summer.
The head of IT put me on to trinket... I didn't like that it was an IDE in a browser. But It was clean.
Please don't tell me "just install linux on 300 chromebooks."
That would be nice, but it's not in my control. I could ask IT to add apps to the the chromebooks however.

Search python in browser and try some more... there are kinda too many options.
another option would be to set up jupyterlab on a server and let the kids work with jupyter notebooks.
I guess my original post is kind of unclear. What I'm trying to get away from are web apps.
That's what I mean by "I didn't like that it was an IDE in a browser."
Though we may land on something like this if I can't find a better alternative.
Can the chromebooks do android apps?
Because there's kind-of linux as a free app.

Though I don't feel like vim or emacs is the best choice for an editor for learners.
I also found microrepl which offers micropython for android on f-droid, then I searched for it on google play.

Stuff that's FOSS enough to be on f-droid, usually doesn't include ads.
