Show HN: Art Coding Lab – Learn Creative Coding Through Micro Challenges
I’m building Art Coding Lab - a step-by-step learning path for creative coding.
The idea is simple:
Start with the very basics:
coordinates, circles, variables, loops.
Then slowly grow into:
geometry, animation, trigonometry, generative systems and visual art.
Not preset effects.
Not random YouTube tutorials.
Not "copy this cool sketch and maybe understand it later".
I want it to feel like one long guided adventure - made from small micro challenges where you write code, press play, see what happens, and keep building.
It uses p5.js / JavaScript, but the focus is not learn syntax for the sake of syntax.
The focus is learn code by making visual things.
Right now I have a prelaunch page with a few free lessons and a small live demo.
You can try 3 free lessons, see the demo, and join the prelaunch list: artcodinglab.com
I’d love feedback from people who have always wanted to try creative coding but never really knew where to start.
