With p5.js, you can think of your entire Web browser as your canvas for sketching with code!
Learn programming the fun way–by sketching with interactive computer graphics! Getting Started with p5.js contains techniques that can be applied to creating games, animations, and interfaces. p5.js is a new interpretation of Processing written in JavaScript that makes it easy to interact with HTML5 objects, including text, input, video, webcam, and sound. Like its older sibling Processing, p5.js makes coding accessible for artists, designers, educators, and beginners.
Written by the lead p5.js developer and the founders of Processing, this book provides an introduction to the creative possibilities of today’s Web, using JavaScript and HTML.
With Getting Started with p5.js, you’ll:
Quickly learn programming basics, from variables to objects Understand the fundamentals of computer graphics Create interactive graphics with easy-to-follow projects Learn to apply data visualization techniques Capture and manipulate webcam audio and video feeds in the browser

BEST WAY TO TEACH YOUR JAVA P5!
As a graphic designer, I wanted to expand my skills into more digital means, and java p5 was the way to do it. I recently graduated with my master’s degree and missed out on taking coding classes while still enrolled. So I bought this book, and now I’m happy to say I’m a coder at work! My clients are asking for more and more generative art, and combining my two passions is great! I had ZERO prior coding experience and following this book one page at a time led me to the job I have now! Many clear examples and great practice problems illustrate how to use and operate the java p5 library. Highly recommend getting this book if you are interested in learning how to code! At the end of the photos, I included some of my work from the practice problems in the book.

Well written. Easy to read. Introductory.
This book is well written. It conveys complex ideas like object oriented programming clearly and concisely. It is mostly for someone new to programming, but will also be useful to someone who has programming experience and wants a systematic intro to p5.js

Get your start with p5.js here
What a great book to get you started with p5.js! This book covers the basics and quickly gets you into some cool graphics. I read half way through and worked along with the projects. Then I started exploring later chapters. Also a great reference to have nearby.Highly recommend you start here!

Good print quality
Arrived on time, the quality of the book is really good. Itâs pretty thin, smaller than usual coding books. The paper quality is also very high(not glossy paper).Just got the book, so can not really comment about the content. Flipping through pages – looks like itâs a very detailed intro into the basics, like shapes and motion.

Excellent!!!
I am a teacher and used this book to teach my beginning coding class. The book was clearly written with many great examples that illustrated the concepts of P5. Totally worth the money!

Great
This book is great for people who want to learn p5.js, which is great for students and kids trying to learn web-development. I bought this for someone who is in the early stages of learning javascript and thought it would be a nice way to get them started, and it was. If you want to teach someone javascript this is a nice place to start, despite the fact that it basically turns javascript into “processing” which is arduino’s programming language.All in all, really easy to follow, we had a little game going on in minutes.

Explains the basic concepts of p5js really well. Great way to get you started if have zero prior knowledge of coding. A portable size too.

This is a must have for university student enrolled in Programming module
Luca Galliani –
An offline book for an online graphic library is a good idea to improve the library’s knowledge.Only the practice was not enough for me, and reviewing offline some ideas was a great help for me.

Un libro interessante e ben scritto per chi si approccia a p5.js. Qualche nozione base di programmazione aiuta ma non è strettamente essenziale. L’inglese è chiaro e semplice. Consigliato!
