Free stage canvas
Arrange blocks spatially inside scenes when you want creative freedom, then tighten the same topic in outline or backstage view.
KNOWTON
Topic-first learning platform
Scratch-inspired, not a clone
Make topics with stages, objects, and backstage logic.
Knowton is a friendly creator studio for topics that can become lessons, mini-sites, games, wikis, simulations, or app-like learning spaces. Start simple, then reveal the maker tools when you need more power.

The topic maker should feel like a room for building, not a slide deck.

Boss quiz
Scenes can become pages, game stages, wiki tabs, or visual learning screens.
Topic-first structure
Every topic becomes a system of smaller blocks: text, quiz, memory, guess, and code can all work together without pretending to be separate products.
Real community
Publish topics, follow creators, like work, bookmark what matters, and search by block mix, intent, freshness, and creator.
Coding inside learning
Use code blocks when explanation alone is not enough and learners need a runnable sandbox beside the lesson.
What makes it feel like Knowton
A maker board first, a learning platform second.
Object playground
Drag, duplicate, resize, recolor, hide, and stage objects like a flexible maker board.
Backstage wires
Connect flow, data, logic, appearance, movement, sound, and events without losing the visual map.
Block coding mirror
Switch between line-coding and block-coding views over the same topic program.
