                 You don’t need to write long lines of code! With Thunkable, you can easily build apps
                 such as drawing pads or calculators. It works in your browser, using colourful blocks

                 to create actions and logic, just like building with Lego.

                 WHAT IS THUNKABLE?

                 Thunkable is called a no-code app builder. It lets you create apps without coding.

                 You use drag-and-drop blocks instead of writing complex code. The two main parts
                 of Thunkable are:

                      Design Area: Create your app layout by adding buttons, text boxes, images and
                     labels.

                      Blocks Area: Set actions using logic blocks, like what happens when someone
                     taps a button or enters text.
