Am I just supposed to know what "creative coding" is? It is not defined anywhere on the page. What specifically distinguishes "creative coding" from just "coding"?

I kinda figured this out from context clues, but they really should introduce the term on this page!

Anyone know what "expressive" means here?

Also, you could have provided a link to the wikipedia article this is from.
