Hello,

I was working through a similar experience with a member here:

> [@Translate Processing sketch into P5 issue](https://discourse.processing.org/t/translate-processing-sketch-into-p5-issue/23344):
>
> HI, im trying to translate this processing sketch into P5, P5 is currently unable to give me an error that I can understand. below I posted the original processing sketch, and my wild guess on p5. P5: class CubeClass { constructor (x, y, z, on, col1, col2, col3) { this.x = xpos; this.y = ypos; this.z = zpos; this.col1 = colOne; this.col2 = colTwo; this.col3 = colTre; } update() { if(oN){ push(); translate(xpos,ypos,zpos); beginShape(QUADS); fill(colors[colOne…

You may be able to glean some insight and tips from that also.

I am new to P5.js also and always manage to work out a solution.

It was useful for me to also go through the resources and examples here:

> **[home | p5.js](https://p5js.org/)**
>
> p5.js a JS client-side library for creating graphic and interactive experiences, based on the core principles of Processing.

And related content on the Coding Train in YouTube; a search will get you there.
