Learn Programming with FlowRun
Learn Programming with FlowRun
A visual introduction into the world of programming
About the Book
Everyone should learn how to code
Everyone should learn the basics of programming.
People learn it for various reasons: getting a job, earning money, because their school requires it, or just for fun - because they love it.
Regardless of the motivation, the results are highly rewarding.
You expand your horizons, get a very good understanding of how computers work, what programmers do actually, and how you can solve some real-world problems by yourself.
This book uses a visual way to teach you the basic building blocks of programming.
And not only that, but you also get to try every example in the book in a matter of seconds.
No setup needed, just a computer or smartphone with a browser.
The concepts from this book are transferrable to any programming language.
Learning programming visually first makes it easier to follow the execution flow.
Once you learn the basics, everything you learn after this will become much easier to understand.
Only the sky is the limit.
