Let Me Code: A Free, Hands-On Way to Learn Coding Without the Setup Hassle šŸš€

Akash Dwivedi - Sep 21 - - Dev Community

Hey everyone! šŸ‘‹

As someone who is passionate about learning programming, Iā€™ve always believed that the best way to learn code is through hands-on practice. But letā€™s be honestā€”setting up coding environments can be a frustrating first step for beginners. They should focus more on learning, and choose the right language they wish to learn. Thatā€™s exactly why I built Let Me Code, a free platform designed to make coding easy, practical, and accessible to everyone. Whether youā€™re just starting out or have some experience, this tool is here to simplify the process of learning and practicing programming.

Hereā€™s a quick overview of what Let Me Code offers, and why I think itā€™s going to be a game-changer for anyone learning to code.

What Is Let Me Code? šŸ’»
Let Me Code is a free, easy-to-use platform built for beginners and intermediate learners who want to actively engage with programming concepts without the hassle of setting up environments on their machines.

It offers:

  • Quick lessons on various programming languages.

Courses

Lessons

  • Multiple-choice quizzes (5-15 questions) to help you check your understanding after each lesson.

MCQ Quiz

  • Coding challenges that allow you to practice what youā€™ve learned right on the platformā€”no need to download or install anything!

Practice problems

Coding Problems

SQL Problems

At the moment, we support multiple languages like Python, Go, Rust, JavaScript, and SQL, and weā€™re working on adding even more coding challenges and features over time. šŸŒ±

Why I Built This Platform šŸŽÆ
I built Let Me Code because I wanted to make learning programming a more active experience. In my opinion, watching long YouTube tutorials or reading dense articles can be passiveā€”you might understand the concepts at the moment but forget them later. With Let Me Code, you learn by doing.

  • Short lessons introduce you to programming concepts without overwhelming you.
  • After each lesson, you can take a quiz to see how well youā€™ve understood the material.
  • Finally, you can immediately practice writing code right on the site. This hands-on approach helps you retain information and develop actual coding skills.

Thereā€™s no need to spend time setting up a local environment or installing softwareā€”just open the site, learn, and code. šŸ§‘ā€šŸ’»

What Makes Let Me Code Different? šŸš€

  1. Completely Free: There are no hidden costs or paywalls. Everything you need to start learning is available for free.
  2. Practice Built-In: Unlike many other platforms, we let you write and test code right in the browser. You can dive straight into coding without worrying about setup.
  3. Simple and Accessible: Itā€™s designed to be easy for beginners. You donā€™t need to have advanced tech knowledge to use the platformā€”just start coding!
  4. Real-Time Assistance: Thereā€™s an integrated assistant, powered by Gemini AI, that can help you with doubts as youā€™re working through lessons.

While Iā€™m focused on building the best possible learning experience, I want to be upfrontā€”the design is very basic right now. Iā€™m constantly improving the platform's functionality, adding new coding challenges, and enhancing the lessons. Your feedback will help guide what gets built next.

Iā€™ll be adding more coding challenges and expanding the lessons across different programming languages. Iā€™m also planning to introduce features like:

  • Tracking progress, so you can see how much youā€™ve learned.
  • More languages and lessons.
  • Additional coding problems to deepen your hands-on experience.

The more feedback I get, the faster I can build out the features you want. So, Iā€™d love to hear from you about what lessons, courses, or features youā€™d like to see!

If youā€™re someone whoā€™s looking to learn codingā€”or know someone who isā€”give Let Me Code a try. Itā€™s simple, straightforward, and best of all, itā€™s free. Iā€™d love to hear what you think and get your feedback on how I can make the platform better for you.

If you try it out, let me know:

  • Whatā€™s working well for you?
  • Are there any lessons or features youā€™d like to see added?
  • How can I improve the overall experience?

Your feedback will be a huge help in shaping Let Me Code into the best possible resource for learners.

Learning to code can be challenging, but with the right tools, it doesnā€™t have to be overwhelming. My goal with Let Me Code is to make programming fun, interactive, and practical for everyone. You donā€™t need fancy setups or expensive coursesā€”just a desire to learn and a willingness to practice.

If that sounds like something youā€™d be interested in, head over to Let Me Code and start learning today. I canā€™t wait to hear what you think! šŸ˜Š
