A worthy follow up on the first edition.

I have a copy of the Processing version of the book (which I like very much) and was hesitant to purchase this edition if it was simply a translation of the code from Processing to p5.js. Nevertheless, I pre-ordered it, receiving my copy today. A quick glance shows that it is a substantially new book. The art featured in the first section of the book is different than that of the previous work. The topic selection itself seems somewhat different (although there is of course a lot of overlap). This present book contains some neat ideas which don't have any direct analog with the earlier edition (e.g. using Perlin noise to create kinetic fonts and doing fun things with emojis).If there are any cons, it is that the book is substantially smaller than the earlier one (250 pages rather than 500). It doesn't delve into the theory quite so much. While it is still a stunningly beautiful programming book, it doesn't seem like quite the same labor of love as the first edition. Furthermore, as a paperback edition, the book doesn't lie open as easily as the other. While I like saving money, in this case I would have preferred to spend an extra $20 or so to purchase a book which had nicer physical features. For this reason, I was tempted to give the book 4 stars, but the sheer beauty of the book compels me to give it 5. If only all programming books were so fun to look at.

Limitless fun and joy!

This book arrived promptly. Ever since it has given me nothing but joy. Photography is my passion and coding is my background. This book has helped me put the two together for endless hours of fun and joy. The code for the examples for p5.js and its predecessor, Processing, are an added bonus. Thank you!

Ease of use

A very handy format, clear layout and very well thought out. An excellent reference book for creative coding with many examples and practical explanations. Highly recommended for beginners.
