Being a high school student I realised first hand how daunting and challenging it is to transition from basic to more complex programming languages. After talking to younger children, I learnt that this is an issue that practically everyone experiences. Some people I talked to have lost interest in coding altogether. Thadus changes this - its serves as a stepping stone to bridge this large gap. The syntax used in Thadus is easy, simple and straightforward - there's no colons or 8 data types. With Thadus anyone can start their coding journey!

Thadus V1 now allows coders to save projects as a .thad file which can also be edited via notepad like a text file.
