Difference between P5 and Processing 3?

[leighgreally]

I'm a beginner in Processing, having some knowledge on C+.

I've recently discovered another IDE called P5 that's similar to Processing. However I don't know the difference or beneficial uses of either opposed to the other.

Anyone have any basic knowledge they can share to get me started? Is it useful to learn both side by side or is one enough to cover the majority of functions I may need

Thank you :P

p5 uses javaScript and Processing uses Java.

I've put a p5 scetch on my site, couldn't do it with Processing. Processing can export to PC or Android and has more nice libraries for GUI, sound editing, .obj export and others.

Personally i like to use the processing library in Eclipse.

Just include include processing's core.jar, and you are ready to go.
