• I wrote a book about Python - and am excited to share it

  Looks like a great book, and definitely an under-served niche! If you ever feel like converting it to a course, I'd be happy to offer you a deal over at the interactive coding course builder I run: https://coursemaker.org/. Source: almost 3 years ago

• So you want to self-publish books and courses on programming

  LearnWorlds is a solid choice. If you're after a course platform tailored for technical courses, check out https://coursemaker.org. - Source: Hacker News / almost 3 years ago

• SQLBolt – Interactive lessons and exercises to learn SQL

  You can build your own site like this with CourseMaker[1] (disclaimer: I'm the founder). We don't have SQL support yet, but you can create interactive exercises with JS, Python, Go, Rust, C# and Java. I learned to code through these kinds of sites (codeacademy and code school especially), I think being able to tinker in the browser with no setup is great.

• Hire me and pay what you want, just give me interesting work

  Same, sometimes people volunteer to help me code https://coursemaker.org for free because they like the idea. In one case this has worked out well. But in a couple of others the engineers have vanished quite fast. Sometimes I wonder if I made a much more serious effort to onboard/document/give ownership then would they stick with it. What do you reckon - how was the onboarding in your case? - Source: Hacker News / about 3 years ago

• Featured Mod of the Month: Anita Olsen

  Anita: I have lifetime access to the subscription-based code-learning website, CodeCombat, where I enjoy learning Python and taking all the Game Development courses offered there. Those games I made were a part of the Game Development 1 and 2 courses (there is also a 3rd course) on CodeCombat. You code the games entirely on your own from scratch by the use of the knowledge you have gathered from the lessons in the... - Source: dev.to / about 1 month ago

• Screen-free coding for children: the xylophone maze

  And https://codecombat.com, which has been around for a while now. I think this paradigm (navigating a character using "move" function invocations) is good but kind of exhausts its usefulness after a while. I question whether my daughter learns coding this way or just is playing a turn based top down platformer. The most code like thing is when you use 'loops' to have characters repeat sequences of moves. I... - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

• What can I do?

  So now, while you have time (yes you have no time now but when you are out of school working with a child and or no summer vacation you will have less time) you can try MIT Scratch or CodeCombat and learn to code. For you it's a long the goal is to make 1 app or a handful of apps in 4 years until you graduate. That's absolutely doable even for someone who knows 0 about coding. Then when you graduate, if you are... Source: 5 months ago

• What Programming Languages are Best for Kids?

  You can also have a look on Erase All Kittens (quite interesting) and also Code Combat. Source: 9 months ago

• And DigTech teachers willing to share?

  Https://codecombat.com/ is REALLY good, the free levels have enough content for ~10 weeks for an intro to programming term. Source: 12 months ago
