什么是蚱hopper？ (What is Grasshopper?)

Grasshopper is an interactive education app for learning about coding. It began at Google as an experimental project created by a group called Area 120.

Grasshopper是一個用于學習編碼的交互式教育應用程序。 它始于Google，是一個由Area 120小組創建的實驗性項目。

According to 9to5Google, since its launch in April 2018, Grasshopper has been downloaded 1.6 million times on iOS and Android devices.

據9to5Google稱，自2018年4月啟動以來，Grasshopper在iOS和Android設備上已被下載了160萬次。

What makes Grasshopper unique is that it specializes in the mobile user experience. Its underlying mission is to reach out to people who want to learn coding but who also primarily use a mobile device. It is filled with colorful and creative exercises designed to acclimate the user to the syntax of JavaScript and the nature of programming in general.

Grasshopper之所以與眾不同，是因為它專注于移動用戶體驗。 它的基本任務是與想學習編碼但也主要使用移動設備的人們接觸。 它充滿了豐富多彩的創意練習，旨在使用戶熟悉JavaScript的語法和一般的編程性質。

As you progress through the exercises, you gain "patches" through various achievements. Grasshopper also keeps track of all the concepts you learned thus far. They even have a mode of the app that lets you practice the concepts you learned to get better at programming!

隨著練習的進行，您會通過各種成就獲得“補丁”。 蚱hopper還跟蹤您到目前為止所學的所有概念。 他們甚至有一個應用程序模式，可讓您練習所學的概念，以更好地進行編程！

你從那里去哪里？ (Where do you go from there?)

At some point, there will come a time where the user will need to begin programming on a desktop computer (with an actual, physical keyboard) to continue their coding journey. freeCodeCamp is an excellent path to take because not only are there lots of in-depth exercises, you can also earn certificates in certain areas of coding that you can work to earn. This includes areas such as:

在某個時候，用戶將需要開始在臺式計算機(使用實際的物理鍵盤)上進行編程以繼續其編碼過程。 freeCodeCamp是一條絕佳的途徑，因為不僅有很多深入的練習，而且您還可以在某些可以工作獲得的編碼領域獲得證書 。 這包括以下領域：

• Responsive Web Design
  響應式網頁設計
• Data Visualization
  數據可視化
• APIs and Microservices
  API和微服務

You can even pick up where you left off on Grasshopper by earning a certificate on freeCodeCamp in JavaScript Algorithms and Data Structures!

您甚至可以通過獲得JavaScript算法和數據結構中的freeCodeCamp上的證書，來繼續您在Grasshopper上留下的地方！

And the best part: It's all 100% free!

最好的部分是： 全部100％免費！

The certificates involve working through a series of exercises and completing a set of projects that test what you learned. If you get stuck, you can seek help from a community of other coders, new and experienced, who are ready and willing to help! There is also a news section of the site where everyday users are publishing helpful articles everyday!

證書涉及通過一系列練習和完成一組測試您所學知識的項目。 如果您遇到困難，可以從其他愿意并愿意提供幫助的新手和資深程序員社區中尋求幫助！ 該網站的新聞欄目中，每天都有用戶每天發布有用的文章！

Besides the individual online experience, freeCodeCamp study groups have been created all over the world where you can go and meet with other programmers to learn from and network with one another!

除了個人的在線體驗，freeCodeCamp學習小組已經遍布世界各地，您可以在這里與其他程序員見面，互相學習和交流！

Through fantastic, free platforms like Grasshopper and freeCodeCamp, your start in the programming industry will be strong!

通過Grasshopper和freeCodeCamp等出色的免費平臺，您在編程行業的起步將會非常強大 ！
