Awesome! This looks gorgeous! Will test this out as soon as I come home. :) Maybe I’m just blind, but a direct iTunes link would have been useful (https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/treehouse-learn-programming/id664753504?ls=1&mt=8)
Never mind… unbelievable how blind I was xD
I almost bought an iPad just to use this app but it would be great to have an Android version.
