Show HN: Enlight – Learn to code by building projects
- txsh 8y agoThis is fantastic. The hardest part of solo programming to me is coming up with an idea.
- shamdasani 8y agoDefinitely. The best part is that programmers can easily build on top of these projects to create sophisticated applications.
- mixedtech 8y agoLooks good. It would be nice to have a quick way to sort by language of interest.
- shamdasani 8y agoComing soon! I'm planning a page with tracks for web development, machine learning, iOS development, etc.
- chatmasta 8y agoI like this, as it's how I learned programming back in ~2004-2008. Back then, "how to make X" was the typical format of tutorial you would find at tutorial aggregators or publishers. e.g. "how to make a membership system in PHP." I always enjoyed these guides much more than generic "how OOP works" because they gave me something to build, with step-by-step instructions to verify I'm doing it right, and that I could extend for my purposes once I got it working. Nowadays content is much more generic and you see a lot less "indie tutorial" type content. Either you read someone's blogpost on a complex, niche technical topic, or you pay for an introductory course / bootcamp that teaches in the more traditional tutorial style. It's kind of sad that the attitude of freely sharing "how to do X" has been co-opted by profit-seeing education programs. P.S. I see from your website that you're a high school runner? Very cool! I ran XC/Track all throughout high school and in college at the D1 level... let me know if you ever want to chat about recruiting or anything, it looks like you're a decent runner based on your tempo times.
