Jeroo Development Environment

Jeroo was created by Brian Dorn and Dean Sanders of Iowa State University and Northwest Missouri State University. Jeroo is maintained and enhanced by Dr. Brian Dorn who earned his PhD at Georgia Institute of Technology (Georgia Tech) and is now an Assistant Professor of Computer Science at the University of Nebraska at Omaha. Jeroo is a syntax-oriented programming environment we use to teach Python-style syntax to prepare the student for programming in Python.

Jeroo is syntactically similar to Python and provides many of the same constructs, but is much more simple and easier to learn than Python. Jeroo only has one class (the Jeroo class) and can only have four instances of the class at one time.

Jeroo may be downloaded for free at: jeroo.org.
