   Best Place to Learn Coding for Free

   I've been using SoloLearn for nearly 2 years, every single day, and it's almost replaced facebook for me. I mean, it's an awesome place, with awesome people. Great place to learn the basics of coding, and practice writing codes, and have a great time.

   👍 Pros:    Friendly and safe community|Well designed courses and challenges|Great gamification

   👎 Cons:    A few connection issues when servers are overloaded.

• Best way to learn JS, Node.JS SQL and Python for "free"?

  You could stick with freeCodeCamp or use SoloLearn. It's a duolingo style app that teaches programming in small exercises instead of full projects. Source: 11 months ago

• Is 45 credits in one term difficult to complete? Should I push my start date and study more before beginning the term?

  That being said, I wouldn't push it back that far. At best, push it back a month, and spend that month on sololearn.com focusing on the Java courses. If you know Java, you can learn Python on the fly. Then keep track of your intended schedule (once you've discussed the order you'll attempt classes with your Mentor; I've just copied your list verbatim) with due dates, as below. The Buffer weeks are there to... Source: 11 months ago

• Programmer in game development. Advice?

  Watch this video by Game Maker's toolkit to understand Unity, after that, learn C# using SoloLearn, it's a Duolingo style (mobile/web)app that teaches programming languages. When you finish both, start doing your own projects and when you don't know something look for documentation, if you don't find any, then search on google, if you still don't find how to do what you want, then you ask on Reddit and StackOverflow.

• need Advice from USA developers

  Additional Certifications never hurt. You could bang out the HTML, JavaScript, and CSS certs on sololearn.com in no time. I challenged my daughter to learn c# and I did it along with her ... 2 weeks and a few hours total later I had a new addition for my linkedin profile. Source: 11 months ago

• Hey! Are there any coding platforms where you can share a simple link with other people to use an app? I keep wanting to find something other than code.org (which makes sharing pretty easy and accessible to anyone)

  Looking for collaboration and advanced features? Most decent ones cost money ... Start with replit.com, also look at codeanywhere.com, and also codetogether.com (requires download, free+paid plans). Source: over 2 years ago

• QUESTION: How to manage pair programming?

  Are you using the right tools? Screen sharing isn't great for longer sessions, and you need a code focused tool like Live Share, or one we make - CodeTogether, especially if you need to work across IDEs. Source: about 3 years ago

• dual keyboard / mouse input?

  Just addressing the pair programming aspect of this - if you were doing this remotely, you could use something like codetogether.com Each of you would have your own machines and screens, but be looking at the same piece of code (if you want) or investigate / code in different areas of the project too.

• PhpStorm 2021.1 Released: Preview for PHP and HTML Files, 20+ New Inspections, Improvements in All Subsystems, and Pair Programming via Code With Me

  If any of you are looking for a pair/mob programming solution that works across IDEs, do try codetogether.com. Host in IntelliJ, join from VS Code or Eclipse if you want. We just added the support for writeable shared terminals. Video covering all the features is here: https://youtu.be/OgCWc3hTBc0. Source: about 3 years ago
