XF Zero to hero - for coders

[Razasharp]

Hi Guys, I was wondering if any of the coders here could come up with a list of reading material to get people up to speed with XF (for those that want to create add-ons), preferably in order - so starting with the basics leading up to more complicated stuff.

As an example you can check out my Ruby & Rails zero to hero guide (although you don't have to go into that much detail - just links will suffice!) Best way to learn Ruby & Rails

Thanks in advance!

Thanks - that's exactly the sort of thing I was looking for!

Ok i'll try to compile such a list as I go on (if anyone has any good links please post them!).
I'm guessing the position of the material for now, until I have a more complete list.

I actually think Lawrence's introduction is by far the best way to get introduced to XenForo coding. I'd put that as #1.

Personally I think it's better to get a basic understanding of things before jumping in and creating your first mod - wouldn't you agree?

I haven't read his guide yet btw (the list order above is just temporary/my initial thoughts - I'll update as and when I am going though the material and when I think it's complete)
