The second is the return of the original CreativeJS workshop – JavaScript Graphics and Animation, updated for 2014. Just as you’d expect, there are all kinds of visual effects and advanced interactions. A great way to improve your JavaScript and it can really help to renew your excitement about programming.

Tickets go on sale on Tuesday 14th at 11am UK time. Register your interest on the ticket page for a reminder email.

PS if you can’t get to the UK, then mini online courses are coming – sign up to the mailing list to be the first to hear.

More info on the CreativeJS training page.

It’s two whole days of learning JavaScript visually for creative purposes aimed at designers and other creative types. If you’ve been wanting to learn to code or have wondered what sort of fun visual effects you could make with JavaScript, this class is for you!

Tickets are on sale now and the first five go at the Early Bird discounted rate Grab your ticket before the prices go up!

This course is aimed at creative people with no programming experience who are interested in experimenting with JavaScript and HTML5 canvas to create visual effects, interactions, and data visualizations. It’s a hands-on, visual way to learn JavaScript. So much more interesting than form validation! I’m super excited to bring it to Philadelphia!

CreativeJS for Designers is a perfect way to get started with javascript in a visual way. And for more experienced coders, CreativeJS Fun and Games will get you started making HTML5 games. There are still a few tickets left for each course. Get yours before they’re gone!

Tickets go on sale Tomorrow, 11th February and we expect they’ll go fast, being the first courses of 2014. To register your interest (and get a reminder when tickets go up) head on over to the training page, or to hear about workshops in the future sign up to our mailing list.

Last year at the State of the Browser conference in London, in an arbitrary but fun test, I pitted the browsers against each other to see which could render the most 3D particles.

This year, to change it up a bit, I live coded a space invaders type game, complete with particle explosions, and invited the browser reps to compete in a short tournament.

The code was from the new CreativeJS games workshop, so it’s pretty simple to understand. You can get the source code on my github, and watch the video for a full (if slightly rushed) explanation.
