Usually learn better via videos. I’ve watched a few youtube videos on lua but even those seem to have an assumption of a basic level understanding of coding and how lua is different.
Where should I begin starting from zero?
It’s best if you have a goal in mind.
Is there something you want to implement or a preset you want to modify?
They’re used to be some basic tutorials on line here, maybe not videos, but very basic implementations of core functions.

I’ve been using chatgpt to do some lua code for me, just simple stuff, it often easy to see how it works.

you already know how MIDI works? For the E1 it’s quit fruitful to combine knowledge on lua with knowledge on MIDI
Few specific things I’m looking to create:
I assume this one’s fairly easy- want the functionality of the 4-stage preset- where 1 knob click gives access to 8 encoders. But want additional graphics options. And I want the home screen to reflect what behind the knob click just to a smaller scale.
Example:
Home screen for Page 1:
Leftmost knob, bottom row
Second thing I want is automation related:
-Record automation
-Pause automation recording
-Pause automation playback
-Clear automation recording
I tried that! Need a better baseline understanding of electraone preset editor and lua.
I wouldn’t call myself a midi expert. Midi channel and cc usually covers my needs.
