No one turns into an advanced Dynamo user overnight; nor are the constraints of a full time job conducive to attending a formal months long curriculum on the subject. This doesn’t mean one’s approach to learning the Dynamo visual programming language for REVIT shouldn’t be structured. This presentation aims to give self-directed learners strategies and resources to undertake a substantial part of their own education themselves, as well as providing a healthy dose of support and encouragement that it can indeed be done. Topics covered will include how to get help online and debugging best practices, as well as examples of why learning a scripting language will make any creative or organizational industry challenge easier. Don’t be the person who shows up to site with a shovel; come prepared with an excavator. Main Topics: 1) Available resources. 2) Examples of getting help online. 3) Debugging and reverse engineering. 4) Advancement. 5) How to find time? The answer is why learn Dynamo.
