Hello Everyone!  
I’m Malay, Here’s my draft proposal to improve the examples code :

TLDR :  
The project aims to update the examples in p5 to contextualize them with principles of visual design. Processing and p5 have been designed with a ​​focus on creating visual, interactive media and this has successfully led design, art, and architecture students into programming. But there’s a new generation of students that are growing up in a world where code and digital media are ubiquitous, it thus becomes necessary to bring a change in how we teach art and code, and to perhaps teach them together.

I want to work on a set of examples that introduces both programming constructs alongside concepts of art & design. My hope is that by showcasing how the tool can be used visually, I can bridge the gap that beginners often face between conceptualizing an artwork and coding it

Would love comments and feedback from mentors and aspiring contributors. The GDoc is open for commenting.
