## Description

[CodePen](http://codepen.io/) is a ‘playground for the front end web’ where you 
can write public-facing HTML/CSS/JS demos, called pens. It’s a fountain of inspiration
for web designers and a useful resource for those learning to write, organize, and
share front end code.

WordPen by [Ginger Soul Records](https://gingersoulrecords.com/) is an effort to
bring the best of CodePen to WordPress, with minimal code work. Simply paste a CodePen
URL, save your WordPen, and embed a shortcode in your layout.

HTML, CSS, and JS code will be editable, and all connected resources linked to the
pen will be included with the shortcode.

Not all pens were designed to be featured with WordPen, so you may wish to start
with background- and foreground-friendly pens, which are collected [here](http://codepen.io/gingersoulrecords/collections/public/).
