Abstract
Our immersive programming system allows programs to be edited and controlled by direct manipulation and hand gestures in an immersive virtual environment utilizing multimodal interfaces. It lets beginners focus on learning the essence of programming without requiring familiarity with the keyboard and the commands of a conventional editor.
