I like processing. It easy to get up and running with it and the tutorials are great. Programing graphics is fun (I cut my initial programming teeth on logo).

I like processing. It easy to get up and running with it and the tutorials are great. Programing graphics is fun (I cut my initial programming teeth on logo). I didn't realize its kinda Java till I started using Java at work. The name "processing" isn't great though. It can be difficult to remember. Somewhat fun there are "javascript versions" for the browser, but somewhat confusingly there are a few versions: processingJS [1], p5js (which I think is the official processing port).[2] http://processingjs.org/ http://processingjs.org/ https://p5js.org/ https://p5js.org/

> The name "processing" isn't great though. It can be difficult to remember. I interned with Ben Fry about 6, 7 years ago and think I remember him saying that he regretted naming it "Processing" because of all the reasons people mention here (google, it's a verb, sounds a bit generic, etc)
