Bard College OOP

Why all this then?

  • I have some friends taking OOP next semester, and I wanted a refresher so I could help them
  • I didn't take this OOP, and a lot of the labs are really fun, and I wanted to do them
  • I would love, love, love if we switched from Java to JS for our OOP

Why do I want to switch?

  • JavaScript is huge in the industry
  • The Processing IDE hides a lot of the actual Java syntax/troubles
  • JavaScript, along with Twine in L&T, gives a nice gateway into webdev
  • There is little difference concerning the labs
  • You can do some nice creative things with it!
  • P5js is documented just as well as Processing 3
  • It's still really easy to get set up

If anyone is interested in switching languages again (I know we just moved to Java), I would be happy to help in any way you might need (tutoring, cheatsheets, installations, etc.).

Mobile friendly may be coming soon?
