PYDOJO
A playful way to learn coding with Python, based on Pygame.
GETTING STARTED
Setup
With Thonny
- Install Thonny (https://thonny.org/)
- Thonny it's an IDE with an integrated Python3 distribution, so you don't need to install Python3
- Go to "Tools -> Manage Packages"
- Search and install "Pygame" and "Pydojo"
Without Thonny
- Install Python 3 (https://www.python.org/downloads/)
- Open a terminal emulator (or command prompt)
- Execute the following commands (preceeded by "sudo" if on LINUX or MAC)
- Install Pygame: "pip install pygame"
- Install Pydojo: "pip install pydojo"
- Find a suitable IDE. I suggest
- Visual Studio Code (https://code.visualstudio.com/)
First steps
Now that you have installed the Python interpreter and the necessary libraries, you can start playing with Pydojo. To do it, simply create a .py new empty file (example: myfirstgame.py) and open it with your IDE.
