Tutorials on Meta

You can now read every newline book online! You can have access via one of two ways: Once you have access to any book, head over to " My Library " which you can find in the nav: Once you're inside, you can start reading. You'll have access to the code downloads, as well as ask any questions with inline commenting . Remember, you can get access to every book and guide with a newline Pro subscription - check it out here .

Today we deployed a new feature: rich comments, which pairs with our earlier release of inline commenting . With this new release, you get the full power of our blog editor packed into the comments section. This means you can add simple formatting like bold , italics , and monospace to your comments, as well as more powerful features like code blocks and embeds! One of the best features of learning on newline is that you can get help inline with your learning . One of the biggest problems we've had getting help on other sites is that the comment section is completely separate from the teaching . With newline, we've added the ability to ask questions (and help others) with discussions that are inline with the teaching. This happens in two ways: If you're watching a video and you want more information, hit the "Ask a Question" button and the video will pause and you can ask your question, which is linked that that timecode. As you (and others) are watching the video, you'll see your discussion pop up in the timeline. Other students and teachers can then reply to your question. Gone are the days where you have to scroll all the way to the comments section to ask questions. On newline, you can highlight the text and post your questions (and answers) right where it's relevant: The cool thing is, these discussions have the full power of our blog editor, which means you can post syntax-highlighted code snippets, images, and even embeds like sandboxes: All of this adds up to mean that as you're learning on newline you can get help - and help others - directly alongside your learning.
