===Digital learning / online resources=== Between 2000 and 2010, computer book and magazine publishers declined significantly as providers of programming instruction, as programmers moved to Internet resources to expand their access to information. This shift brought forward new digital products and mechanisms to learn programming skills. During the transition, digital books from publishers transferred information that had traditionally been delivered in print to new and expanding audiences.<ref>{{cite book |last1=Halvorson |first1=Michael J. |title=Code Nation: Personal Computing and the Learn to Program Movement in America |date=2020 |publisher=ACM Books |location=New York, NY |pages=365β368}}</ref> Important Internet resources for learning to code included blogs, wikis, videos, online databases, subscription sites, and custom websites focused on coding skills. New commercial resources included [[YouTube]] videos, Lynda.com tutorials (later [[LinkedIn Learning]]), [[Khan Academy]], [[Codecademy]], [[GitHub]], [[W3Schools]], and numerous coding bootcamps. Most software development systems and [[game engine|game engines]] included rich online help resources, including [[integrated development environment|integrated development environments]] (IDEs), [[context-sensitive help]], [[API|APIs]], and other digital resources. Commercial [[software development kit|software development kits]] (SDKs) also provided a collection of software development tools and documentation in one installable package. Commercial and non-profit organizations published learning websites for developers, created blogs, and established newsfeeds and social media resources about programming. Corporations like [[Apple Inc.|Apple]], [[Microsoft]], [[Oracle Corporation|Oracle]], [[Google]], and [[Amazon (company)|Amazon]] built corporate websites providing support for programmers, including resources like the [[Microsoft Developer Network]] (MSDN). Contemporary movements like Hour of Code ([[Code.org]]) show how learning to program has become associated with digital learning strategies, education agendas, and corporate philanthropy.
