I have ADHD and I feel like binge-watching these... I already learned HTML in high school and was one of the only kids to use CSS and the teacher said that we could even though it wasn't taught. I just excelled so much in that subject that I felt the class was progressing too slowly... I loved HTML and CSS but had no use for them when I had to start working. I'm thinking of pursuing a career in coding now that I remember how fun it can be. The endless creative possibilities...

The way you present, Sir, (even though I'm only a few videos in) really engages the viewer and holds their attention. I especially love it when you ask questions you already know the answer to, but with the same curiosity and amazement a beginner like myself would have. Makes me smile. I really enjoy these videos and would like to thank you for making them, Sir.

This is what I made
function setup() {
createCanvas(400, 600);
}


function draw() {
background(220, 0, 200);
ellipse(195, 75, 70, 80);
rect(134, 120, 125, 200, 50, 50);
rect(85, 135, 40, 150, 100, 100);
rect(267, 135, 40, 150, 100, 100);
rect(145, 325, 45, 200, 100, 100);
rect(200, 325, 45, 200, 100, 100);
}
I couldn't have done this without you! You are a great teacher!

Hey Dan! I'm a senior language teacher with university experience, but seriously, you're one of the few awesome teachers I've ever met. Watching your teaching style not only helps me learn coding but also teaches me how to excel at teaching. Big props to you!

[harrymack]

[vikasagrawal]

KEEP IT UP!!

[NatetheAceOfficial]

I am really loving the excitement and fun you are having just digging into the basics. You can really tell you love teaching.

I already have 2 years of javascript and other language education behind me, but i still listen to these early videos because youre just really fun to listen to. And its always good to go back to the basics sometimes.

[blue_fishbowl]

Sometimes I cry when I watch you. Your commitment and authenticity is touching. Thank you!

For this 79 yrs old, I'm already totally interested in learning more about using p5.js coding. As an old timer, this is exactly what I was looking for as a 'learning' time filler. Can't find the name of the Instructor anywhere, but he is very good at his trade ... but a bit 'quirky'!!! Thank you, anyway.

[silvanalabastida]

I have finally found a coding guide that isn't drop-dead boring!

[laurentkadeko]

this is actually the first time a teacher whos not boring and makes the lesson really fun and enjoybale, srry for my bad enlish. If I knew this channel earlier I wouldn't stop learning coding keep it up man you are making more and more into coding

[edwinlundmark]

I have been on and off on javascript, I think I will finally start learning for real now!

[carvelbell]

I like your teaching style. You are an excellent teacher. What I really like about your teaching style is that you make your  tutoring very entertaining and enjoyable to watch and learn from , while  at the same time you are seriously giving high quality and classics tutorial  that is very clear and easy  to understand. Honestly your teaching method is  excellent and I applause and respect you for that. Keep up the good work, because you are doing a wonderful job. Thanks.

I'm about to embark on a new chapter, and I'm really excited to start doing more generative art - this channel is a true gift, thank you so much for doing this!! Between p5 and processing I feel like I've got most of what I need...now to figure out how to export to SVG :)

'cartesian coordinates system' 😳😳😳

from never having heard of this 'concept' (till today, TILL THIS VERY SECOND), after watching (and 👂👂👂ing) Your explanation

I GET IT 😆😆😆

thank You SO SO MUCH, i have a feeling Your tutorials are going to change my life (understanding of a subject i have been interested in and actively trying to learn [and comprehend {wrestling with}] for several [SEVERAL😭😭😭] years now...)

one of the first and most important lessons You have taught (and managed to convey) is that koding is EXCITING and FUN ❗️🎉🎉😆😆😆

again THANK YOU SO SO MUCH 🤓🤓🤓 🙌🙌🙌

like 'they' say (often) 'ones' understanding of a subject (any subject) is directly connected to the person (the teacher) teaching it ❗️...

here is a prime example, the 0, 0 coordinates 'thing' was like a KEY opening and flinging open a door to the (my) absolute and clear understanding of this ('basic') concept, i feel a little emotional now 😭😭😭 and want to write 0, 0 on my computer screen; the 0, 0 coordinate (top left of my computer screen [{almost} as a metaphor for my understanding LOL 😉😉😉 {i'm gonna do it LOL 🤣🤣🤣 🙃🙃🙃}])

[JakubWojciechowski]

Wow, a programming course which explain things in a way I can actually understand! It's just the third lesson, but stil!
Kudos!

[MyDirt]

I’ve been studying JavaScript from a course for the past 3 month and everything has just became crystal clear to me after watching this video.

[hunterfitzpatrick]

Your enthusiasm for coding is infectious and has compelled me to learn. Thanks!
