Do you have any suggestions that can help a beginner to learn Wordpress plugin development?

I plan to learn about Wordpress plugin development and trying to find the best , practical approach in the course.

Do you have any suggestions that can help a beginner to learn plugin development in all areas for this subject.

I have also check Udemy but Most of them are Not seem to be updated to the current tech. So if you have anyone / sites that can provide good practical approach on plugin development, I will be appreciated

    Main thing is just starting with some basic tutorials, and learning from mistakes.
    I also found it super helpful to have friends install your plugin, they will look at it with other eyes and find issues you didn't.

    Best of luck!

      Exactly, just start with Wordpress Plugin Boilerplate: https://wppb.me/ and then look for specific questions on Stack Overflow.

    Books! Wordpress Bible was great in its day but I’m not sure it’s current anymore. Depends on how much WP has moved on from its old structure of “the loop.”
