Im new to the whole programming with Lua scene, I used to do a little bit and Java but have been distant from it all for about 2 years now, Im just wondering if anyone knows of any decent up to date tutorial websites? I know there used to be www.learningcorona.com, However it looks like its closed also alot of stuff on there is outdated.
Thanks in Advance 
And that’s just from googling “learn to code”. The official lua site has quite good documentation, too: http://www.lua.org/docs.html
Thanks buddy, Im looking more for tutorials on Corona its-self I.E using the Libraries etc… But I will definitely take a look

If you’re just getting started, I really believe everything you’ll need is right here on the Corona site. Check out the University:
http://coronalabs.com/resources/tutorials/getting-started-with-corona/
The API documents themselves are all very well written, with lots of examples. You should reference those early and often. I think a lot of people miss out on the API documents. It’s really the first place to go when you don’t understand something.Â
The forums are also a great place to learn. I read through the forum posts daily and can’t begin to tell you how much new stuff you can pick up just reading about problems and solutions other people have encountered.Â
I’d also highly recommend the Corona Geek Hangouts. These guys really know their stuff:

Thank you for the response Jim, Greatly appreciated buddy. Always wanted to have my own games, Stuck in a dead end job at the moment, Just really want to try and better my life for me and my son, Have a few great ideas, Just really unsure how to make it happen. But hopefully the info you have provided should give me a good step in the right direction!
@JamesSherburne is correct - this site really does have everything a corona user needs to learn from. I’ve looked around and while there are tutorials out there (some very good sites) most are not a patch on this site. The forums especially are a great resource because everyone here is so responsive. I simply recommend looking at the samples in the app directory, trying stuff out and asking questions.
