Try Code is an online interactive coding tutorial for those with absolutely no programming experience. It includes a web-based Racket REPL, and the tutorial itself is condensed from Chapter 2 of Realm of Racket.
Try Code was forked from John Berry's try-racket, and is written in Racket and JavaScript with Chris Done's jquery-console.
Please note that the REPL and its server are still to some extent a work in progress, and community contribution is vigorously encouraged.
Try Code is hosted online at http://trycode.io
$ racket trycode/main.rktOpen http://localhost:8080 in your browser
NOTE: Currently Try Code does not work properly on Windows/Mac platforms. It should run, but hosting is not recommended as surprising behaviors continue to be discovered.
