Many experienced BYONDers swear by the ZBTs, and frequently recommend them to new programmers a Developer Forums search will turn up several hundred hits for "ZBT." By the time you reach the end of one, you'll have created a functioning BYOND game. They're informative, funny, and relatively short. If you're too impatient to read the whole Blue Book - or if you've read it and want a second opinion - you might enjoy the ZBT tutorials. It's a painless, entertaining introduction that lets you start programming and seeing results right from the very first chapter. BYOND has sprouted a cartload of new features since 2000, but the Blue Book is as relevant as ever after all, the newer features tend to be advanced, and you're not likely (or at least not wise) to try using them until you first understand the BYOND fundamentals presented in the Blue Book. The dawn of the 21st Century brought with it the dawn of the Blue Book - in my opinion, the single best resource available to aspiring BYOND programmers.

Below you'll find a list of the finest free resources BYOND has to offer, and descriptions of each. And I believe some congratulations are in order, because you've just solved that challenge. Your first challenge is simply figuring out where to start. (Yes, "BYOND" and "beyond" are pronounced alike.) You'll be happy to know that your chances are pretty good! BYOND has already helped countless people learn the basics of programming, and then helped them to go beyond the basics. If you're new to programming, you may be wondering if there's really any chance that you can learn to do it.
