Python IDE Hong Kong — Free Tool for DSE ICT Students
PyForm 係由香港學生親手打造嘅 Python IDE,專為 DSE ICT 同中學 Python 學習而設。完全喺瀏覽器運行,零安裝、零下載、零設定 — 開個 tab 就可以開始寫 code。
If you're a Hong Kong secondary school student preparing for the HKDSE ICT exam, or just learning Python in school, PyForm is the only IDE built specifically for you. Made in Hong Kong, aligned with the local curriculum, and free forever.
🎯 Built for the HKDSE ICT 2026 curriculum
Every feature in PyForm is designed around the official HKDSE ICT syllabus. 50+ practice tasks cover the exact topics tested in Paper 1A, Paper 1B, and SBA — written in the same style as past HKEAA papers.
💻 Works on your school Chromebook (no admin password needed)
HK schools lock down computers. Most students can't install Python or Thonny — there's no admin password. PyForm runs entirely in the browser using WebAssembly, so it works on any locked-down school PC, Chromebook, or iPad. No install. No admin rights. Nothing for IT to block.
It also works on your phone for revising on the MTR — the Monaco editor adapts to small screens and supports touch.
🤖 Cantonese-friendly AI tutor
FORM AI, the built-in coding assistant, understands and responds in 繁體中文 / Cantonese as well as English. Ask "點解我嘅 for loop 行錯?" or "explain this list comprehension" — both work. Free for all students, no paywall.
"I built PyForm because no existing IDE felt right for DSE ICT students. So I made one that does."
