Replying to myself, to add this note: I just read the link
likehacker.com/learn-to-code/
about Google's "Blockly" a drag and drop tool for building apps that
outputs Python or Javascript code (among others) and it might be
usable along these lines...I'm sure serious programmers would not use
it but maybe engineers looking to make web front ends
for data acquisition or data base apps might use it...
