I want to improve my programming skills and learn new languages. Pretty much all of my coding experience is in Roblox’s Luau, but I feel confident in that environment and language. However, I’ve realized that often roblox developers are much more efficient and understand more complex subjects if they are also experienced programmers in other languages. It seems to make sense to me how learning other skills and languages in computer science would involve many transferrable skills.
What I would like advice on is where to start. Should I just pick something that sounds interesting and go from there, like app development or something? I don’t really know what to do after I learn the syntax of a language. I’ve coded with several different languages, and could make them do simple programs easily enough, but that was the extent of it. My goal is to improve my overall ability to think logically and apply those creations to code, which I think might be hindered if my only experience is in roblox luau.
to further your programming/gamedev knowledge using stuff that isn’t available in roblox, check out shaders, actual object oriented design, modding, and rendering
additionally, leetcode challenges are a good time burner if you’ve got no projects to be doing
if you mean other computer skills that arent programming uhh, modelling, sound design, and graphic design are cool
Thanks for the reply, I’ll look into your recommendations! I’m curious about your opinions on python, though. Python is probably my second most experienced language, I haven’t used it in years but I remember it being pretty easy compared to C#.
