For programming newbies
- C++ - covers everything C++ basics to advanced.
For experienced programmers
- Pointers - the core basics of C++. While you can by without needing to know the details, you'll find it really, really useful if you do.
- C++11 - know how to make your life easier with modern C++11.
Helpful tools
- Source Trail - get quick overview of an unfamiliar codebase (like Mudlet, if you're just joining here)
- draw.io - Draw and share diagrams online

Random tips and tricks
Determine what auto resolves to with:
template <typename T> struct watzattype;
void TriggerUnit::doCleanup()
{
for(auto & trigger : mCleanupList)
{
watzattype<decltype(trigger)>{};
Compiler will error and tell you the type, TTrigger*& in this example.
