Show HN: C++ Editor for Teaching How to Code

Good work, pleasing UI (when it works). Please also compare with the excellent pythontutor.com website (it works with C++ too: http://pythontutor.com/cpp.html ).

Examples of differences I can see:

* pythontutor requires a backend and does not run entirely in the browser.

* pythontutor supports much more of C++ (i.e., has fewer limitations)

* shows pointers, heap and stack better.

But there are probably many more differences; would like to see a comparison among similar resources. Anyway, I think this sort of live visualization is indeed very useful; great work and please continue.

Python Tututor is the first project in this category that I totally loved it. The dream would be to have all the options Python Tutor has and also speed and user experience, but technically there is not very easy to achieve. Thanks for the feedback!
