Built for the curious.

Clawschools is an independent online learning platform with a simple mission: make rigorous, project-based education accessible to anyone with the curiosity to start.

Our approach

Every course at Clawschools is built around one idea: you learn best by making things. We pair short, focused lessons with weekly projects that push you to apply what you just learned — not just memorize it.

How it works

Why "Clawschools"?

We like cats. Cats are curious creatures who learn by poking at things, falling off things, and trying again. That seems like the right model for learning, honestly.

Our team

A small, distributed team of educators, engineers, and designers who believe that learning shouldn't be locked behind paywalls or aimed only at degree-holders. We're based across four time zones and powered mostly by coffee.

Open source

Many of our example projects, exercises, and tooling are open-source. We benefit from the open web; we try to give back.
