Learning sources...?

[Anonymous]

Good evening. 

I was curious as to where I can learn to code on the Fusion API in order to make 3D thread standards that are not existent on the Fusion App Store or on the Fusion interface. This will be used to make a 3d modeled part.

Thank you!

Hello,

You can probably find some sample codes from the following link:

Thanks,

Where do I find the information to put in the Get the Design? Is it the name of the file? 

Also, the things with the "#" symbols to the left of them; are those instructions meant to be there (i.e., words meant to be in place of commands), or are they meant to be deleted?

Sorry if I ask too many questions, I don't have any programming experience.

Thank you in advance for your patience!

Also, if there are meant to be commands in place of those words with the "#" symbol to the left of them, is there a specific standard as to how they should be written?

Thanks again,

The "#" symbol is used in Python to designate a comment.  So, whatever is after the "#" is basically a note for the programmer and ignored in the program.

I would recommend starting with an introduction to Python and then digging into the Fusion 360 API.  Python is a very popular language and there are is a lot of training material available.  One good resource is at the source; python.org.  Here's a link to their "Beginners Guide".  https://wiki.python.org/moin/BeginnersGuide
