I have been asked many times about how to start programming in architecture. This video is my first attempt to present the options to you and give you my recommendations.

Thank you for your support!

I have never seen a content like this before..your words should reach more students and architects this can really help many to have a clear vision.❤️

My two cents as a CAD guy - learn Python. I was laid off with Covid and took advantage of it. I think it's good to get a knowledge of 'under the hood' of how computers work, since we all use computer programs for Arch/Eng. It's hard at first but just stick with it and it will click. Plus we generally use Excel and other programs that Python can interact with and it's Free!

just subscribed and will keep following because the website and projects you are doing just blew my mind

[quetenesenelojo]

Thank you!!! Just what I was looking for!

[samkia]

Very well! So much inspirational ... Python is a great choice to start!

Big tick for "visual programming". Apples Quartz Composer is free and a great place to start for those new to coding. Check out the Facebook "Quartz Composer" Group's pinned post for where to get it, how to install it and other advice. QC is heaps of fun and a very easy way to start learning visual programming or flow programming with lots of graphical instant gratification and 3D mesh tools.

I just discovered your channel and I have been trying to find a way to automate my workflow through BIM software but it is never enough. I think this is exactly what I am looking for. But I still have some questions:
- I cannot see any Python course on your teachable page. I know there are a handful online, but I want to understand the architectural workflow without having to learn a new language, is that even possible?
- I intend to have blender3D as my base tool, it has enough plugins, and it is based on python too, not to mention the game engine, the node editor, parametric modeling. So do you think it is a long learning curve from here to there?

[mellisa]

The programs you mention are quite expensive. What do you think of free Blender combined with Python? Is it a good start to programming architecture? If so what would be the next step? Thanks so much for you content. It gives me the third wing :)

Dr. What do you mean by c++ not working on Mac? I'm aware this is old content, and probably things have changed. I'm really interested in your content and I'll really appreciate the info. Thank you in advance.

Hey, Milos what is your opinion on architects using processing as a coding platform?

[nitishsharma]

hey milos, can you please make a course on python automation in building industry since it has really powerful modules for automation and ml

[Abhishek.Saini]

Please make a video on space plan generator.

[kevinarambula]

Will you come to SCI-Arc and give a seminar?

[crazay]

Hey, as a sophomore student in school of architecture whose have a year or so experience with Revit, do you still recommend me to start using Rhino or just focus on graphics such as photoshop and illustrator ?

[haneennabil]

so revit with dynamo could be used in parametric (computitional design)?

[iam_mulbah]

appreciate the suggestion and tips on which programming language to choose as a beginner.
I follow your advice and got Rhino 6 can you share with me websites that have full package for beginners and are trustworthy or even YouTube channel.
Thanks once more.
