YOUR FIRST PLIRO PROJECT
Start with a real Pliro program. There is nothing to install: open the project, change one value and see what your code does.
Choose ‘Open this project’ below. The example will be ready in the real Pliro playground on this page.
Choose Code, then Text, inside the project. Change distance = 60 to distance = 90. Leave the other lines alone: they make four equal moves and turns.
Press Run inside the project. Watch the turtle draw your square. Output says ‘Square finished!’.
Then try 40 instead of 90 and run again. The square becomes smaller. Save your code with the download button inside the project.
