A better coding window

How can we help?

It seems like the coding window for computer programming (https://www.khanacademy.org/computer-programming/new/pjs) is always no more than 1197 pixels, which is tiny compared to my 1080p monitor. This makes it really annoying to code. Also, it's only 400 pixels high, meaning you can only see about 20 lines of code at once. Often I feel forced to code in a different text editor like Notepad++, and then copy/paste it to Khan Academy all the time which is really annoying. Please consider allowing us to resize the window to make it a lot easier to code.

Thanks in advance.

Save your program, scroll down to settings in the about. You can change canvas size there.

Hi JochCool,

Currently there's no way to change the size of the code editor. However, a few users have developed a chrome extension that makes the code editor a little bigger.

Let me know if you have any further questions!

I just posted a feature request for just this. https://khanacademy.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/360059849252-Changing-the-code-editor-into-a-fullscreen-pane-rather-than-the-small-window-it-is-currently-

It also includes a link to a CSS stylsheet I made that makes it much larger
