Learn JavaScript for free with Google's latest mobile game
Grasshopper is akin to Duolingo, in that it is geared toward people with little or no experience at all, and in that it won't turn you into a coding wiz overnight, no matter how much you'd like that. Upon opening the app for the first time, you'll be asked if you have any experience in coding, after which you'll complete a short tutorial, and then you'll be able to pick your practice schedule. Of course, polishing your coding skills daily is the recommended thing to do.
The courses in Grasshopper are cleverly designed as a series of puzzles and quizzes that increasingly get more difficult:
“Each coding puzzle has the student writing real JavaScript code using a custom built code editing environment. The student is given a challenge, and the user has to solve it using code, but it only takes a few taps to write out,” says Laura Holmes, founder of Grasshopper.
If you're interested in learning JavaScript, but have no idea where to begin, Google's Grasshopper is a good starting point.
