Need to learn programming or to improve your programming skills?
With Sololearn you can get acquainted with a programming language in a relatively accessible way. At the time of writing, several languages are supported, including Python, JavaScript, HTML, and SQL. In total you can choose from 20 different languages.
The app takes into account different entry levels. You don’t necessarily have to be a beginner, but you can also choose lessons that deepen your existing knowledge. You can do the exercises directly from the app: the small screen and the lack of a full keyboard make it not always very inviting.
What is immediately appreciated are the compact competitions. Here you compare your own skills with other participants. Each won battle gives you a number of points, with which you rise further in the ranks.
The app stands out for its community. Here you can ask questions and get help solving assignments. These assignments always follow the same approach: they only take a few minutes to complete. The idea behind this is that you can carry out the assignments during the day in between.
