Art Coding Lab
Learn creative coding through 650+ visual micro challenges
Art Coding Lab is an interactive learning platform that takes complete beginners from their first lines of p5.js code to generative art, simulations, artificial life, computer vision and 3D worlds through 650+ small hands-on challenges.
Hey Product Hunt! 👋
I’m Janis, the creator of Art Coding Lab.
I built it because creative coding is often taught in one of two ways:
You either watch a long tutorial and copy a finished project, or you jump between disconnected examples without knowing what to learn next.
I wanted to create something more structured.
Art Coding Lab is a step-by-step learning platform where complete beginners learn JavaScript and p5.js through small visual micro challenges.
Instead of receiving a huge block of code, you:
→ learn one small idea
→ change a small piece of code
→ press Play
→ see the result immediately
→ continue to the next challenge
The path starts with coordinates, shapes, colors and variables, then gradually moves into animation, interaction, generative art, trigonometry, particles, simulations, artificial life, computer vision and 3D worlds.
The current version includes:
• 65+ lessons
• 650+ hands-on micro challenges
• Creative Labs
• Complete demo projects
• Visual math explorations
• A beginner-to-advanced learning path
The goal is not to teach people how to copy visual effects.
The goal is to help them understand how visual systems are built, so they can modify them, combine ideas and eventually create their own work.
This is the first public launch, so I’d really appreciate honest feedback - especially about the learning experience, progression and anything that feels confusing or doesn’t work as expected.
You can try the first lesson for free.
Thanks for checking it out! 🙌
How does the learning path actually progress through the 650+ challenges, and is there any guidance on which ones to tackle first if I'm completely new to coding?
Would love a way to share my p5.js sketches directly from the editor with a simple link, maybe even a live preview embed so friends can remix them without needing to sign up first.
