Codecademy API lessons
Codecademy, the startup that aims to teach people everywhere how to code, wants to help make those APIs even more accessible. Today Codecademy is announcing that it has partnered with a number of established web companies to offer a host of new lessons that concentrate on the basics of building with their specific APIs.
Codecademy first launched API lessons last month, but this release brings a number of new big name API providers to the mix. Codecademy now has lessons for building with APIs from Twitter, Evernote, Box, and Gilt. The full list of Codecademy’s new API partners is rounded out by WePay, Microsoft SkyDrive, 23andme, Mashape, Ordr.in, Firebase, Easypost, Github, MailChimp (Mandrill), Dwolla, and Parse...
“Within a few minutes of starting lessons on Codecademy, users can do really awesome things,” says co-founder Zach Sims. They can learn to send invoices... and receive payment... Alternatively, Twitter API lessons teach them how to "read Twitter from the code editor" and create their own tweets, while other lessons let them "pass files around like a bad cold."
