Memuat Grasshopper: Learn to Code 3.03.01 3

Popopam Jam!

I haven't used this app for long, but so far it's great! I've been trying to learn how to code for years, but it's been a struggle with ADHD... 😅 But this app solved all my problems! All the other apps and websites and resources I've tried to learn coding on taught me far too slowly, so I struggled to keep paying attention, but this one teaches at the perfect pace for me. I don't know about you all but this was the perfect app for me! Would recommend to anyone who has the same struggles as me.

This app is a great introduction to programming in JavaScript! I haven't finished its course, so I'm not entirely sure how close I can get to being fluent just by using it, but it breaks down each concept into an easily digestible idea. The end of the first chapter is a sort of text-based adventure type of format, but you have to answer with code! It makes for a really intuitive way to internalize concepts.

The app is great! I like that it is easy to understand my Grasshopper when I am learning. Grasshopper is very easy to use, for the progression is very great for early coding. There is a leveling up system and levels. I have only a couple of achievements, but I am still doing the math stuff, so I get a pass for that. You can do quizzes and code on your own with your Grasshopper. Thank you for this wonderful learning app, Google!

I have no prior knowledge or experience of coding. I dont know if I'm just that smart, or if this app is just that "choice word" awesome, but I'm learning how write javascript, and this app breaks it down perfectly. It offers hints for all the problems, and if that's not enough, it offers a walk through for them. Great Learning Application! I highly recommend it.

This is an excellent app for learning the basics of coding. The examples are fun and relevant to the concepts being taught. The JavaScript syntax is made pretty easy with an intuitive clickable interface. There are even a few fun features such as the ability to dress up the grasshopper character as you progress through the lessons. One of the most enjoyable coding apps I've used.

I'm still at the beginning so I can't speak to how well these lessons translate to practical programming experience and that's why I have to give 4 stars instead of 5. That being said, the lessons are well designed and fun for kids or adults. My 12 year old nephew and I are both using it to learn programming and it's well designed enough that we are both learning and continually using it ( we compete to see who can get the most badges). I live in NYC and it's perfect for my subway commute.

Awesome. Thank you for what is essentially a free college course. The only reason I dodnt give 5 stars is because each level is only played once with the option for a rehash. Before I kndw it I was too far in to really absorb the lesson and had to replay old ones. There is a re-do, but its not encouraged/rewarded much. There needs be practice lessons (think math class homework). Some sort of structure for repetition. As it is I sped through it and got way too ahead of myself and had to go back

This review is coming from a student who wants to get into UX design and learn coding- the concept overall is great! In the beginning I felt as if I was learning without "filler words". However, as I progressed through the tasks. I began to notice (as well as other reviews) that I was learning what it would take to move on to the next step, rather than actually learning. The visuals are great! However, it fails when it comes to the experience of the user overtime.

The idea is wonderful but there's room for improvement. The app is easy and fun to navigate. I love the Grasshopper icon. The concept of the app is great and the feeling of accomplishment is awesome. However, after awhile you feel like you're just following directions rather than learning. I understand the idea behind following steps and keeping things simple, but at some point w need to have assignments without guidance since the concept was given prior the exercise. Constructive criticism

Trying it again after not using this one for a year but it gets too difficult very fast. My personal gripe is that when it starts getting to the intro to interview, it should explain things more in depth such as what each part of the code is doing because I'm following the instructions but I don't know what I'm doing and I feel like that's 99% of the learning process. I made it to the shape up exercise but I have no idea what the code is doing because it's so intensely complicated.
