Webmaker is about empowering everyone to become makers of the web instead of just users. It's a mix of web tools, teaching material, and a social platform for teaching, learning, and sharing what you make. And, it's a lot of fun to use. It's even more fun to develop!

Webmaker is built using modern web technologies including Node.js, HTML5, CSS, and JavaScript (lots of JavaScript!)--many of the same technologies Webmaker teaches. If you know these technologies, or are interested in learning them more deeply, you might be interested in helping us develop Webmaker.
