Reeborg’s World has been designed for you!

When Reeborg’s World was created, half on my focus was on writing tutorials, in both English and French, teaching programming. Over time, I found that other teachers were writing better tutorials and that my time was better spent on improving the site, including adding new features.

Hopefully, you have a teacher or a friend or a parent to guide you and help you learn Python (or Javascript) using Reeborg’s World. If you don’t, all is not lost.

The current documentation contains all the basic information ... but is not written in an easy way to help beginners learn. You can try to follow some old tutorials I wrote, [http://reeborg.ca/docs/begin_py_en/, http://reeborg.ca/docs/oop_py_en/, http://reeborg.ca/docs/begin_py_fr/], the first two written in English and the third written in French. However, many of the worlds described do not exist anymore - so you might have to create your own. Feel free to contact me, either by email, or by asking questions on a subreddit I created a while ago (http://www.reddit.com/r/reeborg) and which has been kept mostly hidden.

I know of some other tutorials that were written for the “old” version of Reeborg’s World. When teachers contact me to tell me about their tutorials adapted for the “new” version, I will list those tutorials here so that you can use them for your own learning.
