Programs to get kids into coding have been popping up all over in the past several years. Idaho has been no different. 

‘Kids Who Code’ is one program at the Ada Community Library in Boise. One of the students learning to code is nine-year-old Scout Wilson. She joins Idaho Matters with one of her instructors, librarian Derek Ramos.
