Learn GDScript From Zero

Learn GDScript From Zero is an app to learn to program with Godot's GDScript programming language from zero.

We designed it for programming beginners, although it should also help self-taught people coming from other programming languages and domains.

You can test the latest release live here: Learn GDScript From Zero.

This app is the free part of a larger paid course to learn game creation with the Godot game engine: Learn to Code From Zero, with Godot.

We're early in production and plan to complete the project at the end of May 2022.

Over 1600 backers funded this project on Kickstarter, which is why we could make a complete interactive app to learn GDScript for free.

The app is in beta

We first released the app on December 28, 2021. It's currently in a beta testing phase.

While we're doing our best to make everything work, you should expect issues. Please report any issue or bug you face to help make the app better for you and everyone else.

To do so:

  • Head to the Issues tab.
  • Search for a report matching your issue.
  • If you can't find any, click the New issue button in the top-right corner.
  • Follow the instructions on the screen.

Roadmap

In this section, you'll find a summary of our roadmap for the app.

For more details regarding the planned improvements for each milestone, please head to the Milestones page.

Milestone 0.2

Planned release: by February 7, 2022

For the next milestone, we'll add three major features:

  1. Interactive tutorials.
  2. A glossary.
  3. Localization support.

We'll also work on many improvements and bug fixes based on people's feedback. And, of course, a batch of new lessons and practices.

Milestone 1.0

Planned release: by March 7, 2022

This milestone will mark the first complete release of the app and GDScript course. It should contain over 30 lessons and practices.

On the app's side, we will focus on polishing the experience.

Feedback, requests, and discussions

We value feedback and bug reports. We will also consider feature requests, especially if they fit our vision and we feel they benefit programming beginners.

When participating in any discussion around here, please respect our Kind Communication Guidelines.

In the Discussions tab, you can suggest and upvote ideas for new features or ask other community members for help.

To report bugs, typos, and discuss existing tasks, please head to the Issues tab instead.

How to contribute

Contributions are welcome if you feel like giving a hand.

To contribute, you need to follow a couple of guidelines.

First, we ultimately decide on the app's design and features or changes that go in. Before you make a change, please ensure there's an existing Issues for it and please let us know you're working on it.

Here's our GDScript code style guide: GDQuest GDScript style guide.

Please always start pull request titles and commit messages with one of the following prefixes:

  • feat: for new features.
  • improvement: for an improvement to an existing feature.
  • fix: for a bug fix.
  • docs: for changes to the project's documentation.
  • build: for anything related to GitHub actions.

How we work

We may directly edit your code to merge it faster when reviewing your changes. This is something we do in our team too for efficiency. We may also request changes.

Finally, if some contribution doesn't work for us, we may close the pull request.

This happens primarily in two cases:

  • The changes don't answer an issue we created or vetted.
  • The pull request's author didn't make the requested changes for over a month.
