Learn to program Amiga applications and games in #AmigaE

[Cammy]

Hi everyone. Would you like to learn, brush up on, or teach Amiga programming? AmigaE and PortablE are excellent programming languages for the Amiga, and many top quality applications and games have been written in this language. I am learning to program in it myself, and so are a few others, while some of the more experienced coders help out by teaching us and explaining how things work.

We have regular meetings around this time (check the time I posted this and it should show the appropriate time for your time zone) every Sunday/Monday (check the date of my post, it's Monday for me in Australia but Sunday still for SamuraiCrow). Our meetings are in the #Amiga channel on the Freenode IRC network.

If you're online at the moment and would like to join in, learn to program and chat about some development projects, please drop by!

Hi everyone! Just a reminder that our AmigaE game programming class is on again today, so join #AmigaE on irc.freenode.net now if you want to pick up some pointers or help out.

Thanks!

Thanks for the support, ChaosLord!

Our programming class is on again right now if anyone would like to join in. We're currently working on getting our adventure game library code to work in PortablE as well as AmigaE, so it can be compiled for Aros as well as classic Amigas.

Please join in if you're curious about learning one of the best languages for writing games and applications on the Amiga!

It's a real shame you guys with years of programming experience don't actually code Amiga applications, the community would really appreciate it. I'm sure it wouldn't take you long, you guys seem to know so much. Is it because you have become so used to writing bloated code for modern systems that you don't think your brain could handle optimising the code for a low-end Amiga? Or is it because you're just greedy and only code for money? Where is your interest in Amiga now, other than posting like a bigshot on forums?

Sorry if I touched a nerve, bigshot, but I figure if people have the time to waste boasting on forums about how good they are at coding they could at least find some time to put their money where their mouth is and code something once in a while, whether or not they live real lives or delusional fantasy ones.

I'm sorry if I offended anyone, I was only being a bit cheeky with my challenge to a few people already posting here, it wasn't meant to be directed at randoms who haven't had enough sleep.
