That is actually a problem in trying to introduce someone to coding. First attempt frequently is experienced as boring and/or too complex. It would be absolutely wonderful to have several standard entry points to programming for various target audiences. There are some cropping up with popular MooC courses but nothing for adults that have a barrier to better understanding that programming is not that hard.
Yeah, that's understandable, thanks for trying though, we'll have more content soon, and it should be more stable to boot, so perhaps we can impress her at a later date. :)
