Hi Colton,

Welcome! Glad you’re trying ChucK out. As far as I understand, quite a few 
universities have already included it in their courses, and it seems like the 
community is growing quite a bit. 

As Diana said, the e-book is a great resource, and you will also be able to 
find a lot of information in the built-in examples or online. Also, if you’re 
interested in the Kadenze course from her link, you should definitely check it 
out; Kadenze courses are constantly running in an adaptive schedule mode, so 
you can just start whenever and learn at your own pace.

Finally… Ask away, and don’t be afraid to include your code whenever you ask 
any questions. This will make it easier for everyone to understand what you’re 
trying to do, and you will get a lot more ideas to play around with.
Have fun!


JP
