Forge · public in 2027
Build it with AI. Understand what you built.
Forge is an online creator platform where young people use AI as a mentor to build digital products. It teaches you the ideas underneath your code, so you can direct AI instead of depending on it.
What you can do on Forge
Build, solve, learn
Forge is a world of islands to walk around. Build what you want, take on problems other people have, and learn computer science one idea at a time.
Build products you want. Build products you need.
If you can describe it, you can build it — a homework planner, a savings tracker, a game for your friends.
Solve problems people have
Hackathons let you take on someone else’s problem. Build, iterate and grow.
Learning modules
Easy, medium or hard
Challenges are set by a host with a real reason for asking, like rebuilding a picture from light and dark flashes.
How it goes
From an idea to something people use
Bring something you want to exist
Not an exercise with a right answer. A planner for your year group, a tracker for something you are saving for.
Learn what it is made of
Short lessons take you through building a real thing a line at a time, then hand you half-built apps to finish.
Build it, with a helper that explains
It carries the spelling and the field names. The decisions stay yours.
Watch it run
Monitor variables shows what your program is holding, changing as it runs, so you can see what your code is actually doing.
Ship it, then keep going
Publish it, see what people do with it, change it again. Or answer a problem somebody has posted.
For schools
Forge in the classroom
A guided path through the islands, run over one term and tailored to the Australian and New Zealand school curriculums for Grades 6–8. Forge arrives in schools in both countries in 2027.
What will you build?
Learn to build with AI, then put what you make in front of people.
