README excerpt
# PyQuest A browser-based, gamified Python foundations experience for absolute beginners. Three zones, written as a fairy-tale arc — the Awakening Grove (`print`, variables), the Skeleton King's Keep (`for` loops), and the Function Foundry (`def`) — wrap real Python in fiction so non-programmers write working code without ever feeling like they're studying. The full thirty-to-forty-five-minute run takes a player from a pulsing rune in a dark room to a final showdown with the Null Dragon, casting real Python at every step. Pyodide runs CPython in the browser; nothing is simulated. ## Play it live **[https://florianmuljono.github.io/pyquest/](https://florianmuljono.github.io/pyquest/)** Hosted on GitHub Pages. Open the URL in a modern desktop browser (Chrome recommended) — first load takes a few seconds while Pyodide boots, then the rune appears. ## Run it locally No build, no install, no dependencies. Clone the repo and open `index.html` in a browser, or serve the directory with any static file server (e.g. `python3 -m http.server`). ## Tech stack - HTML, CSS, vanilla JavaScript — no framework, no build step - [Pyodide](https://pyodide.org) via CDN for in-browser Python execution - [CodeMirror 6](https://codemirror.net) via CDN for the code editor (later phases) - LocalStorage for save state - GitHub Pages for hosting ## Project documents - [CLAUDE.md](./CLAUDE.md) — working brief - [pyquest-build-plan.md](./pyquest-build-plan.md) — strategy - [pyquest-game-systems.
