Tynker Now Supports ClassLink

You asked, and we listened – Tynker now supports ClassLink rostering and SSO for sign-in! ClassLink gives you a one-stop shop to access all your educational apps and you can now add Tynker to that list. 

ClassLink and Tynker are a natural fit! We’re thrilled to partner with such an innovative tool that supports students’ curiosity, learning, and growth in STEM.
