Godot Programmers (or any informally trained programmers), where did you learn GDScript? Also I'm already learning snippets of code by some trial and error. Just wanted to see if there's something more expedited. First time learning a language. #Godot #gamedev #gaming #Programming #Programmers
GDScript is very quick and easy to learn. Just find a beginner course on YT and get started. I initially wanted to stick with my favorite language, C#, but that still causes some problems in Godot. I like it now, especially because it allows for faster iteration and startup times.
I would suggest if you're having trouble finding good gdscript examples, you could try learning Python first, as they are similar
Thanks for the insight! I'll check it out.
Mostly from the documentation, though I also spent some time watching Harvard's CS50 computer science course on YouTube (which teaches Python, but the languages are very similar).
Thank you, I appreciate the help!
You're welcome, and good luck!
Currently learning it from the documentation.
Seems like it will probably be the same route I'm taking!
It's funny because I learned it by knowing Python, and I learned Python by knowing JavaScript. I learned JavaScript when I was 12 because I wanted to make an in-browser RPG. I simply had to use the documentation. YouTube was no help in 1997...
Lol, it seems like one of those hobbies or careers you get into you just keep getting deeper, and I love that! Just trying to get to where I want to be faster! Thanks for the info!
Coding wise, a lot of it is actually going to the documentation and reading which classes have which methods. Then hopefully your brain can pull out a "hey didn't I read that it could do this" when you need it 😉
