This research involved a quantitative approach using a self-administered survey method. The population in this study were housewives in several regions in Indonesia and the data will be analyzed using partial least square structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM).

We offered 350 Google Forms questions sent via WhatsApp. Results. The results indicates that entrepreneurship education has a significant effect on business sustainability (t-value =16.620, p-value = .000), and computational thinking skills (t-value =10.916, p-value = .000). In addition, digital literacy has a significant effect on business sustainability (t-value =4.612, p-value = .000), and computational thinking skills (t-value =3.738, p-value = .000). Later, there is robust link between computational thinking and business sustainability (t-value =3.712, p-value = .000). The mediating estimation indicates that computational thinking can mediate the connectivity between entrepreneurship education and business sustainability (t-value =3.398, p-value = .001), as well as digital literacy and business sustainability (t-value =2.516, p-value = .012).
