How do you get started coding? I don't know anything about it.

I have just started coding, and I would like to know a good place to start.

Definitely not ^

The wiki is a great place to start, as they have everything. Start by learning how to move a brick, change the color etc. Then move on to more advanced stuff like tables. There are also youtube channels that can help a ton.

Roblox developer hub: https://developer.roblox.com/

I do not recommend alvinblox, as he makes his code more complicated and longer than it has to be.

ye, it better than my essay...

When i started (about one and a half years ago) i pretty much self-taught myself although i would either recommend the wiki or tutorial videos or both, scripting is quite easy to pick up and i think it's best to start editing properties of parts through scripts (changing it's colour, transparency, position etc.) and overall just experimenting with all the things you can do and eventually you'll pick it up, but yeah, tutorial videos and the Wiki is a good way to gain some scripting knowledge.

here are some things to try first off

  • Making a part move
  • Making a part disappear and reappear
  • Use a while true do loop (or a while wait() do loop to avoid crashes)
  • just experimenting with other properties

Making a decent game is quite hard (i know) but make sure you have at least some basic scripting knowledge before working on your first major project
