Game development in Julia with GameZero.jl | Workshop | JuliaCon 2021

Questions? Please register for JuliaCon: https://juliacon.org/2021/tickets/ and you will receive the link for Q/A via email. See you there! Developing simple games is one the most effective ways to learning, and teaching, programming. GameZero.jl is a low-overhead game development framework, that allows beginners and students to learn programming while having a lot of fun. We will describe the simple API exposed by GameZero, and then build up a couple of games using these building blocks. By the end of the session, participants will have one fully functional game working, and will have the building blocks to create the second. On the way, we will also describe the basic syntax and semantics of Julia and its standard library for users who are unfamiliar with it. To prepare, please add the GameZero and Colors package to a julia environment. Enjoyed the workshop? Consider sponsoring us on GitHub: https://github.com/sponsors/JuliaLang
