Description

All software and resources used in this course are free.


This course really focuses on learning how to program in C# with the creation of a fully functional MP3 player as the use case.  I am a 40 year programming veteran who will teach you everything from declaring variables to conditional logic to iterative logic (loops).  While you do follow what I do in this course, I explain what I am doing when writing C# code to teach you the programming language.  Thanks to Unity and Visual Studio, programming is MUCH easier to learn today than it was when I learned back in the 1980's.


In this course, you will learn from an instructor with 40 years application development experience how to create a single scene application in the Unity game engine.  You will build the scene starting with a canvas and adding to it panels and objects.  You will learn to write C# code in Visual Studio to control how the objects you create in Unity behave.  When done, you will have your very own, fully featured MP3 player with stereo audio visualizer.  No unity or programming experience needed.  All you need to do is follow what the instructor does.  This is what you will learn in the course.
