​

[  ] Workshop Description

Part 2 covers advanced programming concepts and creating custom plugins for Grasshopper in C#. Creative_Coding is a 2-Part workshop series for Designers and Architects with no programming background. With a learning path specifically planned for such an audience, the workshop aims to enable not only custom tool development, but also a more in-depth understanding of how most software tools work. From introductory basics on programming to using C# in the Grasshopper environment and further creating custom plugins for Grasshopper; Learn the theory and application of code in Design and Architecture.

Creative_Coding[1] will cover the following:

• Development Environment Setup

• SDKs, APIs and Referencing Libraries

• Project Workflow

• Workshop Project

• Creating and Publishing a Custom Plugin for Grasshopper

• Tips, Tricks and Best Practices

 

From the tutor:

Being a self-taught programmer with a design background, my experience with coding and working with tech companies has changed the way I see software as a tool. While most developers find themselves learning design principles to improve their software, I found myself learning software development to improve my design process. As we move towards an increasingly digital world, I find it necessary to question our dependency on large software development companies to create the tools we need.
