What we're doing
We’ve made it extremely easy to teach online. We think that it should take someone five minutes to create a five minute lesson, and it is a principle that has guided us along the way. Teachers and students love what we have built and use our app and website every day.

We run a large Django / Python web stack. We scale using MySQL, Redis and Amazon Web Services. We push pixels in Photoshop and Illustrator. We’ve got a first class REST API that is shared by the web and mobile clients. We deploy continuously - light on process, big on speed and impact.
