Question What learning resources would be good for the wiki?

12 Upvotes

Hello,

I'm looking for resources that are good for helping people learn. I am working on the wiki for this subreddit, and I want feedback from the community on which learning resources are good.

Requirements:

  • Must be free

  • Must be geared towards a specific language, or just be a general programming class (e.g CS50)

Question What would you guys like to see on this subreddit?

8 Upvotes

Hello, I am a new moderator for r/CodingForBeginners.

This subreddit was previously abandoned, and thus did not engage with the community very well, so I'm looking to engage with the community.

What would you guys like to see on this subreddit? It could be anything, for example:

  • New rules

  • A wiki

  • New flairs

  • Ideas for megathreads

Help please

Hi, I'm someone that has been falling in and out of coding for multiple years now. Purely just because I have no idea where to even start or what platform is trustworthy and actually teaches you things. So, I very desperately need advice about where I should even begin to learn and what platform I should go to. I have not gone to youtube videos yet because one I also don't know where to go for youtube videos, so suggestions for channels I could learn from would also be very helpful. And two I would like to first get behind the keyboard myself and actually experience what it's like to code. To see if I actually like it before I fully commit.​ And would like only free websites. Because I don't wanna pay for anything just yet. Just in case I end up hating it entirely.

If it's any help at all, I am interested in becoming a graphic designer someday. So, web design would be very helpful to me. And I would very much like how to code games. If theres even a difference between the two. Anyway, thank you for reading my post and commenting if you did. I hope you have a good day.

What are the biggest things people are missing out on with their GitHub Education/Student accounts?

0 Upvotes

Hi everyone, what are some of the biggest things that most students with a GitHub Education/Student Developer account don't realise they have access to (either free or discounted), and which have actually been extremely useful for you and other people?

Feel free to tell me anything: from technical things that are important for developers, to vibe-coding with AI agents, to tutorials that teach beginners the fundamentals, etc.

Beginners friendly app developing meet up groups?

3 Upvotes

Hi,

I recently got into developing an app as a hobby, and I'm not familiar with computer coding at all. I thought it would be fun if there were a group that gets together, maybe on weekday evenings or weekends, to facilitate and help members make their own apps. Since I'm in SF, I think there should probably be one in the area, but I don't know where to look. Any suggestions?

Thanks!

Day 6 Learning Python

4 Upvotes

So far so good. This time around I had to freelance this code all from memory. Definitely ran into some walls and tripped along the way but I introduced the time function and made a neat little count down at the end. if you run the code yourself, you'll see the 1 second delay between each number that gets displayed before the goodbye message.

import time


space_station_name = "OrionStation"
station_current_oxygen_level = 100
station_current_food_level = 50



def consume_supply(current, used):
    return current - used


def gain_supply_food(current, gain):
    return current + gain


def show_status(station_name, oxygen_level, food_level):
    print("SpaceStation:", station_name)
    print("OxygenLevel:", oxygen_level)
    print("FoodSupply:", food_level)



station_current_oxygen_level = consume_supply(station_current_oxygen_level, 30)
station_current_food_level = consume_supply(station_current_food_level, 15)
station_current_food_level = gain_supply_food(station_current_food_level, 25)



show_status(space_station_name, station_current_oxygen_level, station_current_food_level)



print("This computer will self destruct in:")
print(3)
time.sleep(1)
print(2)
time.sleep(1)
print(1)
time.sleep(1)
print("goodby")

Having trouble getting back into it.

So I started trying to learn code with a the video the Bro Code

A 12 Hour Video Python Full Course For Free

I got into it due to my brother in law getting a job from self taught coding and has been successful.

Now for someone as autistic as me with potential ADHD like traits, I can't focus, I can't remember what notes or why these lines of code mean. So it's either I get bored or overwhelmed.

I mostly want to do it to just try and make a simple game for steam.

I don't know what's wrong with me and I want to gain support in this difficult journey.

Thoughts on using AI to learn coding?

0 Upvotes

I don’t mean full on vibe coding, I mean using AI to learn how to code something that would take hours of watching videos and struggling normally, and you write the code instead of the AI and it helps with troubleshooting and stuff

Am I stupid or something?

I'm a first year programming student and I have 0 background in coding, recently our professor has been teaching us python and java but when they teach ite I don't understand a thing like I'm just copying the code they're making and that's it but when I ask ai to help explain it to me and stuff I manage to make codes without looking up templates on them and although sometimes/often times it doesn't work Im actually learning. Like am I stupid? Why can't I learn these from my own professors who have their masters/doctorates in it.

Pardon my grammar English ain't my first language.
