For the vast majority of CodeHS courses and tools, the only domains you need to whitelist are:
*.codehs.com (codehs.com and all subdomains)
*.codehs.me (codehs.me and all subdomains)
*.intercom.io - in-site messenger to reach the CodeHS team for support
You can also whitelist our Google Workspace Domain to allow students to open Drive files from the CodeHS Drive. CodeHS Google Workspace Domain: codehs.com
Optional
youtube.com - all CodeHS lesson videos can be streamed from either CodeHS or YouTube, but YouTube provides subtitles, and some lessons include non-CodeHS videos from YouTube.
aframe.io - Virtual Reality library for building VR worlds in the sandbox.
https://cdn.assets.scratch.mit.edu/ - Scratch sprite library.
