I’ve double-clicked the index.html file in the example folder that you can download from the p5js website and it’s stuck at loading. I have copy-pasted 51 lines of code from a project I made in open processing into the sketch.js file in the sublime text editor and it won’t load, I have no idea what to do.

Is there a way to solve it on chrome on a mac? I can always do it on my home windows computer but I like to code on my school mac computer because the keys are easier to reach.

I’m a Windows user, so I dunno how to change app shortcuts on a Mac.

You should try out the other options as well.
