But, if you want to learn to code, the Panlexia scripts can be a good way to experiment with what you have learned elsewhere with an online course.
For now there's only three scripts, maybe temporary, used to generate the matrix that will be used to generate the first files of the project.
Example of files:
english-definition.tsv
english.tsv
english-context.tsv
pandunia.tsv
pandunia-origin.tsv
pandunia-definition.tsv
pandunia-context.tsv
pandunia.decomposition.tsv
french.tsv
german.tsv
german-IPA.tsv
german-gender.tsv
german-style.tsv
russian.tsv
spanish.tsv
etc...
How to learn Python? I don't know. But I would advice the free mobile application Sololearn.
First lesson: a python file ends by the extension .py
