Thanks so much for your feedback on Javvy! Yes, Javascript: it's going to happen! By the way, in this article I cite Java as the most popular programming language (based on the TIOBE index): https://medium.com/@hellocode/getting-javvy-or-how-we-re-bri...
Thank you for those suggestions; they're great! The tutorials are definitely going to get more options and the questions at the end of each chapter will become way more interactive in a future update!
The 6 in 03-04 should be "boolean" and you're right about 03-13. Again, thanks! :)
Thanks! Now that we're into Java, we might delve into COBOL. I'm kidding, we'll keep you posted on our future plans! It'll be something useful, that's for sure. :)
Due to its status in the enterprise and the amount of existing business critical codebases in various stages of rot I tend to think of Java as the COBOL of tomorrow.
That's a hot topic, haha! Anyway, I really like this quote: "I'm sure there are still COBOL programmers out there, but I wouldn't want to be one of them."
Thanks! Accessibility is still a big issue and I think that, yes, bite-size tutorials like ours are a great way to lower the "barriers to entry" - especially for non-technical people.
The relatively small screen size of phones has an impact on the functionality of the programs we can show in Javvy but we're getting there!
I teach a beginning Java course at the university. I told my students to install your app... Apparently it's not free after a point... if you need testers, I have 40 students that are available.
You can totally skip over the basic chapters and polish up your knowledge about OOP concepts and the like. Also, we'll keep adding more advanced stuff!
