Think2Code – Flowcharts to Python (Free, Browser-Based)

Think2Code is a free, browser-based tool designed to help students understand programming logic by linking flowcharts, pseudocode, and real Python code.

Students build programs using flowchart blocks (input, output, decisions, loops, variables, lists), and the corresponding Python code is generated automatically.

They can then run the program, view output, and watch variables change step by step.

The tool is aimed at beginners and is particularly useful for teaching logic before syntax, or for reinforcing how flowcharts translate into actual code.

Key features:

• Flowchart-based programming with immediate Python output
• Clear mapping from pseudocode to Python
• Step-by-step execution with variable tracking
• Built-in challenge library organised by skill (sequence, selection, loops, lists, etc.)
• Work runs entirely in the browser (no accounts, no installs)
• Students can save, load, share, and export their work

Suggested use:

• KS3 and KS4 Computer Science
• Introductory programming lessons
• Transition from block/flow-based logic to text-based Python
• Coding clubs or independent practice
