A new screen appears. On the left side is the screen-like structure where we can see the results
                 from our program. In the middle is the list of the block types available to create a program. On the

                 PROGRESSION FROM BLOCKS TO TEXT

                 After mastering the drag-and-drop block-based programming construction, we can move to a
                 full-features JavaScript editor that has features like code snippets, tooltips, and error detection to

                 help us create projects. Microsoft MakeCode allows us to switch back and forth between blocks
                 and JavaScript as we create our code.
