Title: Hi HN!,<p>My brother got a 5 years jail sentence but is coming out soon, a few months ago he decided to learn to code with no prior experience.<p>I find the way he is studying very inspirational so decided to post his (simple) program.<p>But first, here is what he needs to go through to learn:<p>- We the family send him javascript and html books
- He studies them and writes programs in pen and paper
- He calls me so I input what he wrote on my computer and we debug it live via a phone call, he has to imagine the program in his head.<p>The crazy part is up until a few days ago he didn&#x27;t have access to a computer. 
However! another inmate has an upcoming trial and because the contents of his trial contain to many papers, they provided this inmate with a simple laptop (no internet).<p>My brother is not allowed to touch this laptop and he can only see this inmate 1 hour a day, so he convinced the inmate to sit next to him for my brother to tell him what to type, the other inmate types in the html+js on a notepad file and this way my brother can finally see his programs on a screen after months of only imagining how to program.<p>Here is the program we wrote today:<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;codepen.io&#x2F;throwaway0944&#x2F;pen&#x2F;dyMpqJq" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;codepen.io&#x2F;throwaway0944&#x2F;pen&#x2F;dyMpqJq</a><p>My dream is for this to get some traction so when he calls I can tell him his program has users :)
