3 Coding Projects to Break the Coding Barrier (w/ Instructions Included)

To try everything Brilliant has to offer for free for a full 30 days, visit http://brilliant.org/ForrestKnight/ and get 20% off Brilliant’s annual premium subscription. Their "Thinking in Code" course is heavily applicable to what I go over in this video, with a lot of solid interactive lessons.

This video originally started out as 3 programming projects that'll help you take your coding knowledge beyond the basics; however, I really wanted to have y'all understand exactly how you shuold approach these projects because that's what's most important. And in doing so, I morphed this video into a lesson on how to properly learn to code beyond the basics, with using the first project as an example in that and the other two projects are for you to do on your own. I hope you enjoy this! It's more of a sit back, relax, and listen, because after this video, I hope you'll put full focus into building an interesting project yourself. Programming is A LOT of fun, and even more so once you actually get good.
