Early Access Software

Get involved with this software as it develops.

Note: This Early Access software is not complete and may or may not change further. If you are not excited to use this software in its current state, then you should wait to see if it progresses further in development. Learn more

What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“Throughout development, much thought and consideration was put into determining what topics to include, in what order, and what exercises to implement. Now, it's time to put it up to the test to hear from learners.

Although the course may not be fully complete in this early release state, the current version contains many completed lessons. Learners may choose to begin with the available lessons now, and continue at a later date when the next lessons are to be released. This option may be especially valuable to those starting their high-school or university computer science education in September, whom would benefit from this early release.”

Approximately how long will this software be in Early Access?

“It is expected that the full version will be ready for release October 2026, containing all intended content and exercises. However, it's certainly possible that development will take longer. Development may be extended to implement features that are suggested by the users.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“The full versions intends to implement the course in its entirety, adding what is likely to be 8 lessons.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“This course currently offers 17 out of about 25 intended lessons. Additional tools to aid learning are also available.”

Will this software be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“Yes, a moderate price increase will likely be implemented upon full release. As the course is not yet fully delivered, we cannot justify charging the price intended upon completion for this early version. When the course is completed, the price is likely to change in hopes of funding future projects, including a potential complementary course to Computer Revolution.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“As the goal is to provide the best educational experience possible, customer feedback will be of utmost importance. An understanding of what learners had trouble with, what they enjoyed, and what additional features they may want included in future versions is extremely valuable. No one understands the learning process as well as those currently learning, and this is why we'd love the community to be as involved as possible in these early stages. Community feedback in this regard will be strongly considered and very much appreciated.”

About This Software

Computer Revolution is an educational course providing an introduction to the field of computer science from first principles, with no prerequisites needed.

Throughout the course, learners will be exposed to ideas foundational to the field, like the binary number system, boolean logic, and more. These ideas will be expanded upon to present more practical sections, like computer architecture and computer programming, where learners will be able to model and program a simple computer system.

Features:

The current version offers 17 out of 25 planned lessons, allowing users to build a foundational understanding of computer science from the ground-up. Lessons build upon each other in modular steps, each lesson being a simple extension of the prior. Together, the lessons present topics in a linear, intuitive order, allowing for a seamless introduction to the field and the ideas therein.

Each lesson includes:

  • A storyline portion: intended to lay out the need for additional developments in the field in the form of a problem needing to be solved

  • A video lesson: presenting the relevant information in a concise ~ten-minute video

  • Exercises: allowing for the hands-on solving of problems, creating a deeper understanding of the lesson content

Additional learning tools:

In addition to the course content, additional tools are provided to allow learners to get the best out of their learning experience. Users can review previously encountered terminology, practice boolean logic using boolean diagrams, examine the different iterations of the computer system throughout its development during the course, and will be able to complete programming practice problems using this computer system.

Why Begin With Computer Revolution?

Computer science is a vast field with many encompassing subtopics. Frustrations often arise as learners start in areas that assume prerequisite information they don't have yet. Learners suffering from the improper introduction order of ideas is a genuine problem - and prevents them from learning what ought to be a fascinating and enjoyable field of study.

Computer Revolution aims to solve this problem by teaching from the bottom-up. It follows the correct order for learning in modular, hands-on lessons and exercises, providing a solid foundation that can then be extended to any other computer science domain. 

In this regard, CR aims to be the optimal beginner resource to start one's computer science journey.
