“moveForward(100);” may now be the most famous line of JavaScript in history — it’s what President Barack Obama wrote Monday as he reportedly became the first United States president to write a computer program.

The occasion was intended to mark the first day of 2014’s Computer Science Education Week, which provides opportunities for students to learn computer science.

Around 30 middle-school students from Newark, New Jersey and Brooklyn, New York were hosted at the White House for an “Hour of Code.”

HTML5 holds great potential for creating interactive in-browser experiences, but wielding its power typically requires assorted web design skills and a good handle on JavaScript. However, Jake Lodwick — who had a hand in creating Vimeo and College Humor — is making an effort to lower the barriers holding back internet denizens from crafting web-based animations. Moonbase, the first project of Lodwick’s new company, Elepath, replaces hand coding with a visual editor that enables users to create animations with custom text, images, colors, movements and more.
