I’ve been giving the following list of resources to clients and students over the years, to help aid in their learning goals. This list is by no means exhaustive, but it’s a good start. I’ll update this post whenever I come across good resources.
Full disclosure: All of these books listed, except Digging Into WordPress, lead to Amazon.com. None of the Amazon.com links are affiliate links, so I don’t benefit from purchases made through them.
