🧩 The Dragon Curve fractal looks complex, but it’s born from a simple rule: folding! 🐉 📐

Fold a strip of paper repeatedly, unfold to 90° and that makes a dragon shape! Piece together our fractal puzzle: explore.stemcoding.org/projects/fra...

Check it out! stemcoding.herokuapp.com now has a split screen option for teachers grading assignments so the code doesn't have to open in a new tab unless you want it to!

Did you know the STEMcoding project has its own p5.js learning management system at stemcoding.herokuapp.com ? We just made a minor improvement to the code editor so you can dismiss the helpful message about Ctrl + Z and get a little bit more space on your screen to edit code!
