turtleSpaces is a graduated Logo programming language interpreter that helps you create two and three-dimensional artworks, animations and games.

It provides an easy, straightforward introduction to text-based coding.

It is based on and compatible with Logo from the Apple II, which gives it a cool retro feel, but with a vastly improved user interface and modern capabilities such as multiple threads and turtles.

About Logo

Created in the 1960s to be a computing language understandable to children, Logo (not an acronym, but from the Greek word Logos, meaning 'speech') was initially designed as a language for manipulating… well, language, taking list processing concepts from LISP.

The turtle came later in an attempt to add geometry to Logo's proposed curriculum, first a physical turtle, then as computer displays became more common a 'virtual' one, which drew lines on the screen.

turtleSpaces is an implementation of the Apple II version, but on modern hardware, with the addition of dozens of shape primitives, tables, databases, cameras, lights, music and much more.

It runs in web browsers (WebAssembly), and has applications for Windows, macOS and Linux.
