Sign in to track work, unlock the learning path, and keep parents or facilitators in the loop.

What this app is for

YouthCocoon is a simple home base for Ontario teens (13+) who want to learn web and tech skills without expensive subscriptions.

  • Learn by shipping Teens build real pages and apps with free tools (GitHub, Cursor, Cloudflare) instead of only watching tutorials.
  • Track progress Signed-in checklists, week reflections, and project links so “done” is visible — not just a feeling.
  • Family & facilitator visibility Parents and group leaders can see progress without sharing cloud logins or putting a credit card on a teen account.

Who it’s for

  • Teens (13+) who want to make websites, try AI-assisted coding, and keep a portfolio.
  • Parents who want a low-cost, accountable path — and to stay off teen billing accounts.
  • Facilitators running small circles or clubs who need a read-only view of the roster.

What’s inside after you sign in

The curriculum, skills guides, and progress board open once you have an account. Guests see the purpose; members do the work.

  • My progress Tasks, learners, invite codes, and circles in one place.
  • 4-week path & skills Ship a site, add interaction, then demos — plus UX, AI prompts, and cloud basics in plain language.
