# Awesome Creative Coding [![Awesome](https://awesome.re/badge-flat.svg)](https://github.com/sindresorhus/awesome) # [](https://github.com/terkelg/awesome-creative-coding) > Carefully curated list of awesome [creative coding](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Creative_coding) resources primarily for beginners/intermediates. Creative coding is a different discipline than programming systems. The goal is to create something expressive instead of something functional. **Interaction design**, **information visualization** and **generative art** are all different types of creative coding – which has become a household term describing **artworks articulated as code**. _Please read the [contribution guidelines](contributing.md) before contributing._ ## Contents -
