Well, it's not a Processing book. Maybe we should add a section on the page for "related" books and include p5.js and Processing.py books? All of the Processing.py materials are hosted on a different site. I like the idea of adding it, need to think about how to do it.

Recently we greatly updated and expanded the p5.js website books section:

https://github.com/processing/p5.js-website/issues/699 https://github.com/processing/p5.js-website/pull/716

Brainstorming:

Perhaps the processing.py site could add a books section in the same way?

And the book page lists could (?) be cross-linked at the top or bottom...?

Nice job on the new Books pages for p5.js!

I just updated the Processing books page: https://processing.org/books/

It didn't feel right to add books for other, related languages right now.

Agree, it makes sense for this book to be on the Processing.py site, but that site doesn't have a maintainer.
