Getting Started

We’ve tried to keep Code Camp as simple as possible so that you can get started as quickly as possible. We will present you with some options (and some recommendations), but it’s up to you to choose the option that feels most natural to you.

Prerequisites

Beyond finding a way to run Python code (see below), there are no requirements or prerequisites for Code Camp. However, you might find it useful to complete the basic computer health check; that page also includes some recommendations if you are considering buying a new computer any time soon.

Running Python

We recommend that you simply run Code Camp in your browser since that will allow you to learn (and run) Python anywhere and any time. However, you are welcome to run Code Camp code on your own computer (see: install options).
