The subject "Informatics" is part of many specialties, including non-technical specialties. Thus there are some complications in learning of this subject for students with different levels of knowledge in computer science. The development of support tool for education process is necessary to improve the level of understanding of principal paradigms in informatics and programing for students of non-technical specialties. In this paper the development of supported tool named FRIMAN is considered. The tool allows introducing and teaching of students the basics of programming taking into account minimal skills in computer science. The tool architecture is considered in the details. The functions of all modules are presented too. The possibility of the supported tool development in future are discussed too.
