I would love more outlets for creative coding, I feel like neocities is a bit like that. That said there isn't really a scene or real sense of community (AFAIK). I mean someone liked something I uploaded once, but I never interacted with them again.

Cohost had fun vibes like that as well, but I guess it's no longer with us. Same with Glitch, but admittedly I didn't use it in the last few years, but it was my go to option for hosting a snippet of unserious HTML. "HTML in the park" does seem like one fun IRL outlet for this kind of thing, I found out my city has one and I want to go to it.

Admittedly none of these were really demo scenes or places where creative coding was exclusively fostered, but creative coding and demo-like-scenes communities probably exist but are more likely some obscure discord server.

I would argue dwitter is demoscene reinvented for the internet age.

~I've begun to set up creative coding events in my city just due to this. I'd love to join an online community to show stuff off, I always find places like twitter end up feeling like you're shouting into the void.

It's not about loads of people commenting and liking your work, just finding a place to actually discuss it would be fantastic

I recently starting dabbling in live coding and found it to be really hard and fun and technical and creative. And while I'm not really that comfortable in Discord, I did find the community welcoming and helpful.

HTML in the Park is one of my favourite events in Toronto! Great crowd, I highly recommend attending yours or setting one up if nobody runs one.
