Create with Code

create.withcode.uk lets you write, run, debug and share python code in your browser. This plugin lets you quickly embed your code projects in your wordpress site
When you share a project from create.withcode.uk, you get a URL like: https://create.withcode.uk/embed/3C or https://create.withcode.uk/run/3C
Take the last section of the URL and use it in the shortcode to embed it in your wordpress site:
[withcode id="3C"]
You can customise choose to display the code or run it using the mode attribute:
[withcode id="3C" mode="embed"]
or
[withcode id="3C" mode="run"]
You can also specifiy the height / width of the code snippet:
[withcode id="3C" mode="embed" width="400px" height="600px"]
You can customise the colour scheme by rotating all the colours on the toolbar icons by a hue value:
[withcode id=”3C” hue=”45″]
Or you can make the toolbar icons greyscale as follows:
[withcode id=”3C” grey=”1″]
Please note:
This plugin just lets you embed python code from create.withcode.uk in a wordpress site.
The python code can be run in an iframe in your site by pressing Ctrl + Enter to run the whole program or Ctrl + Space to run one line at a time.
Python code is interpreted and run in the client’s browser: it doesn’t run on your server and it only supports a sandboxed subset of the fully python language.
This is designed as a teaching and learning aid rather than a fully fledged professional development tool.
