Livecoding web streaming service solves two problems: beginners find out whether the life of a programmer is as simple, easy and carefree as it seems from the outside, and already established developers tighten their coding skills.
Unlimited corporate parties, our own mini-brewery in the office, excellent medical care and just a relaxed mood during the day are indispensable attributes of any successful company of young guys involved in programming. Know yourself press the keys, and everything will be like a cat on Shrovetide.
Such petty is before the eyes of the layman, who has no idea about the intricacies and peculiarities of the profession. In fact, everything turns out to be much more prosaic, difficult and boring. Can't believe it? The hero of our review will not let you lie and remove the veil of freebies from your eyes. Meet Livecoding.tv!
Livecoding.tv is a web-based platform for streaming videos about the working life of programmers.
Acquaintance with the service cannot do without parallels with its older brother, ideological inspirer and role model - the famous Twitch.tv. The latter once, with great technical difficulties and some misunderstanding, paved the way for amateur and professional gaming. Now his path is repeated by Livecoding, but with a different target audience - programmers of any level of knowledge and work experience.
The structure of the site is simple: a number of live broadcasts and a list of scheduled sessions (as in the TV program) are offered to your attention. Both are broken down by programming language (for example, Java, SQL, C ++, Ruby, PHP, Swift) and difficulty level (Beginner, Intermediate, Expert). Whatever direction you choose, no matter how skillful you have - here you will find your hobby group. Why am I writing a circle? The fact is that Livecoding.tv has a potentially very strong social component. After registration, you will be allowed to communicate in a general chat with other viewers and ask questions to the streamer, as well as open access to the code repositories. The instruction for those who want to become a programmer will undoubtedly become easier.
I would also like to mention other useful details of the platform:
- View recordings of past broadcasts.
- The ability to make money on online broadcasting.
- The right to thank the streamer with a ruble.
- Multinational composition of mentors.
A little more detail on the last point. English-speaking streamers are mainly registered on Livecoding.tv, although there are French, Poles, Kazakhs, and Russians. Maybe there are not as many of our guys as we would like, but they are still there. Therefore, knowledge of a foreign language is not required.
I do not presume to judge the skill of streamers, the purity of their code and the novelty of the tools used. But I got a good impression of the service itself. Everything is convenient, logical and stable. I advise all beginners and experienced programmers to take a closer look at Livecoding.tv.
