So recently I’ve stumbled upon a video, where a guy creates an animation by programming it with maanim.

And after that I also found a way to create music with programming too.

So I’m wondering… What else can you actually create using programming? Besides the obvious software, VR, AR and all that

    This is the correct answer.

    Anything a computer is doing, the software that does it is doing that because someone(s) programmed it.

    You’re not looking for a programming language specific to a task; those exist, of course, but it’s better to know how systems are programmed, and what APIs are used to program the system you’re interested to control. Choosing which programming language to use should come after knowing what you want the computer system to do.
