is there any tutorial for coronalabs

Solar2D General Questions/Discussion
#1

hello all, im a beginner and i would like to learn coronalabs so i can make the game i always wanted to make. I read the tutorial from the site but it gets complicated. I got stuck at lesson 4 about navigating to a new scene. i have no idea what they are talking about when they say composer .

local goToaDifferentScene = require(‘why it got to be composer’) can i change a composer to a different name?

even lesson 2 and 3 is difficult. it can be put it like this, to have the bullet detect collison we can do this and this. I don’t think this is noob friendly. it like the author is talking and talking and talking.  I didn’t really learn much. if anyone find a easy tutorial for beginner please share

Composer is the official scene management library: https://docs.coronalabs.com/guide/system/composer/index.html

You can change the name of the variable, like so:

local myVariable = require("composer")

But you still need to require “composer” since that is the library’s name. For simplicity sake, it’s usually just easier to keep the variable’s name as composer, i.e.

local composer = require("composer")

On YouTube, you can find a number of helpful videos. But beware of morons who talk about the end of Corona SDK. It’s now open source, will be changed to be called Solar2D and the lead developer, Vlad, has reached his initial funding goal to continue moving forward.

Welcome to the community and I’m sure you’ll be blessed by the vibrant and wonderful developers here who help make Corona/Solar2D an awesome cross-platform choice.

Here are some YouTube videos to help you: https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=corona+sdk

Hello Kenny! Hopefully you found something useful in that period but if you couldn’t I could refer to a simple started project I built 5 years ago. It still works and I tried to reference what I’m using so it could work for you. It’s not that advanced but maybe could help at first.
