Learning to Program with Haiku


ssons by DarkWyrm In January of 2010, I started publishing lessons on learning to program for Haiku, aimed at people who want to be able to write simple programs to get stuff done, but never had anyone around teach them. Years ago, I started teaching myself and am an active developer.

This lesson marks the end of the first unit and is somewhere around halfway from complete neophyte to writing -- and understanding -- our first program for Haiku which uses windows and buttons. This lesson takes a break from hacking the Haiku API to learn a few C++ language concepts needed to continue progress as an aspiring developer. Ten years ago when I first started to learn to write code using BeOS, I had a lot of questions that I couldn't any documentation to give me the answers.
