Updating "Creative Coding Essentials"

Added 2025-10-24 14:00:14 +0000 UTC

Hey there,

I hope you are doing good! I wanted to keep you updated on what's happening here behind the scenes. The Creative Coding Essentials course is now six years old and a lot has happened in the meantime.

I have learned so much about teaching Creative Coding that I believe the course deserves a major update. Also the world has changed and I see that some questions my students had in the past remain unanswered in the course. It is the main entry point to the curriculum and so I think it should be as inviting as possible.

I'll be working on a major update the next months and I'll share the progress with you here on Patreon. Of course I want to invite you as well to leave feedback. What worked well in the past, what can I do better? Is something missing?

Also, I am not sure if the title is still appropriate, because in this video course I am actually not teaching the essentials of Creative Coding, but of Processing and p5.js. Not sure if I should rename it...

I am grateful for any feedback. Let me know if you have questions, ideas, comments, I am happy to hear from you.

With that said, warm greetings,

Tim
