Hi does anyone know of any up to date books or reference materials besides what is on this site as I like to have multiple sources of information, just makes my learning easier.

Books are so old school…   Google everything constantly

For a Lua reference I’d recommend the following book. 

https://www.lua.org/pil/

#4

There’s a $5 (or free if you have KindleUnlimited) ebook available via Amazon that focuses on using Composer with Corona.

+1 for this. I had the second edition book, and it was great.  

It’s written by the guy that created Lua so if it’s not in the book you don’t need to know it  :slight_smile:

#6

and btw, second edition (the blue one) is still the right one for corona

#7

Thanks everyone

Will look at all resources now it is the weekend I have some time to sit down and do some reading and then get coding.
