Getting Started
Programming is difficult, especially when you don't know where to start. While RoboCo and Filament Games don't offer resources to teach players the basics of Python, there are online resources that we recommend player should check out if they're interested in getting to know the language. In particular, we recommend CodeAcademy's Learning Python course which teaches the fundamentals of the language AND is fully virtual! We also recommend reaching out to teachers at your scholastic institution to see if they have any available resources for you.

| Step 3 | Assign your parts to ports manually or use the “automatically assign” button | |
| Step 4 | Press the play button (or spacebar) | |
