Ask HN: Looking for in-browser programming tutorials like 'Try Ruby!'

8 points by jayro 17y ago ↗ HN

I'm trying to create a list of really good interactive, in-browser programming tutorials like 'Try Ruby!', but in other languages like Python, LISP, Scheme, Javascript, Erlang, etc. I don' know if they even exist, but if they're out there I'd like to locate them and create a nice web page for easy reference. So, if you know of any that are any good then please post them in a comment. Thanks!

Not exactly what you're looking for, but check out http://codepad.org/ if you want an extremely quick and convenient way to dabble in various programming languages.

Reddit had a good list awhile back: http://www.reddit.com/r/programming/comments/8ji9m/

Includes ones for Scheme, Python, Factor, Cat, OCaml, Forth, and Brainfuck. And, of course, all of the many languages covered by Codepad.

This is the thing that made me remember 'Ruby', the tutorial was very silk. I don't think other tutorials of that sort exists or they should add them to main languages websites.
