Netidee Call 11 – Austrian Internet Foundation
Providing services in their native language is especially important for teenagers and kids. Thus the Catrobat project tries to provide its apps in as many languages as possible.
A funding of the Austrian Netidee helps to develop a version of Pocket Code that also supports different Right-To-Left languages such as Arabic or Persian. Especially teenagers that speak these languages as mother tongue can benefit from this development and can easily learn computational thinking skills via Pocket Code.
