Getting Started with p5.js: Making Interactive Graphics in JavaScript and Processing (Make: Technology on Your Time)

Actually the best p5js guide I have ever seen

This book is well written. It conveys complex ideas like object oriented programming clearly and concisely. It is mostly for someone new to programming, but will also be useful to someone who has programming experience and wants a systematic intro to p5.js

The media could not be loaded. As a graphic designer, I wanted to expand my skills into more digital means, and java p5 was the way to do it. I recently graduated with my master's degree and missed out on taking coding classes while still enrolled. So I bought this book, and now I'm happy to say I'm a coder at work! My clients are asking for more and more generative art, and combining my two passions is great! I had ZERO prior coding experience and following this book one page at a time led me to the job I have now! Many clear examples and great practice problems illustrate how to use and operate the java p5 library. Highly recommend getting this book if you are interested in learning how to code! At the end of the photos, I included some of my work from the practice problems in the book.

Arrived on time, the quality of the book is really good. It’s pretty thin, smaller than usual coding books. The paper quality is also very high(not glossy paper).Just got the book, so can not really comment about the content. Flipping through pages - looks like it’s a very detailed intro into the basics, like shapes and motion.

What a great book to get you started with p5.js! This book covers the basics and quickly gets you into some cool graphics. I read half way through and worked along with the projects. Then I started exploring later chapters. Also a great reference to have nearby.Highly recommend you start here!

Simple book for none programmers or engineers to learn about graphics

I am a teacher and used this book to teach my beginning coding class. The book was clearly written with many great examples that illustrated the concepts of P5. Totally worth the money!

This book is great for people who want to learn p5.js, which is great for students and kids trying to learn web-development. I bought this for someone who is in the early stages of learning javascript and thought it would be a nice way to get them started, and it was. If you want to teach someone javascript this is a nice place to start, despite the fact that it basically turns javascript into "processing" which is arduino's programming language.All in all, really easy to follow, we had a little game going on in minutes.
