Learn Emojicode
StartHappy 😀 World 🌎 Emoji 🌈 Day 🎉
To celebrate this wonderful annual holiday, here is a mini-course on a Codecademy Team favorite… Emojicode!
Emojicode is a real programming language with playful syntax like 😀 🔤Hello, world!🔤❗️ in place of traditional programming keywords. Learning it can bring some smiles and fun to your programming journey, as well be an enlightening experience in which you will never look at your go-to programming language the same way again.
Note on Prerequisites:
We wouldn’t recommend you use this as your first course in programming; take an introductory course like Learn C++. Once you’re comfortable with another language, Emojicode can be a fun diversion.
