Happy Coding is a collection of coding tutorials, starting with the fundamentals of creative coding and leading to advanced topics like server-side coding, Android development, and technical interviewing.

Happy Coding is also a community of people learning how to code. So if you're stuck on something or have a question, come say "hello world" on the forum!

Hi! I'm Kevin!
By day I'm a software engineer at Google, and by night I teach at Millersville University.
By later night I maintain this site, where I post coding tutorials and other nerdy ramblings. I do this for free, in my spare time, just for fun. I'm a person, not a company!
I support diversity in tech, and I believe I have a responsibility to open the door for new coders- especially those who feel unwelcome, or who might not know how fun it is. Happy Coding is my attempt to show new folks a path from the fundamentals of coding, to every concept I've learned about so far.
I love talking about all of this stuff, so please come say "hello world" on the forum!
