SA 11. Due: Mon, Nov 13
This short assignment is for you to learn how to use p5js outside of the Web-based p5js editor, so that you can code locally on your own laptop.
- READ Setting up p5.js with an editor on your own computer
- Login to your p5js Web account and make a New sketch.
- Rename the sketch to sa11 and save it (File->Save).
- Download your sa11 sketch by selecting File->Download.
- Locate the downloaded folder, rename it, and move to your CS2 folder.
- Download a code editor, I suggest VS Code, but you can use Brackets, Submlime Text 2, vi or other editor.
- Open your downloaded sa11 folder by selecting the menu item "File->Open Folder"
- Click sketch.js in the left file browser pane
- Save an image file into the sa11 folder, e.g. butterfly.png
- Edit your sketch.js in VS Code to load and display your image, e.g. loadImage("butterfly.png")
- Now, either in a terminal (cd yourCS2dir/sa11) and run a local server by following the Local Server instructions on the p5js Web site.
python -m http.server
- Go to your browser (Firefox, Safari, Chrome) and navigate to
http://localhost:8000
- Take a screenshot of your running sketch in the browser.
