Hey HN, I'm looking to learn blockchain development from scratch. Any recommendations on the best resources? Books, online courses, video tutorials, etc.

I suggest starting with the 'Mastering Blockchain' book by Imran Bashir. It's a great introduction to the topic and covers both the theoretical and practical aspects of blockchain development.

I second the Mastering Blockchain recommendation, it's a solid foundation! For hands-on experience, check out the 'Blockchain Development with Hyperledger Fabric' course on Udemy.

Thanks for the suggestions! The Mastering Blockchain book looks great. I'll also check out the Udemy course and the Coursera one. Any thoughts on online platforms specifically dedicated to blockchain development, like Blockgeeks or Chainshot?

Blockgeeks has a fantastic introduction to blockchain course called 'Blockchain Basics'. I recommend completing it before moving on to other, more advanced courses on the platform.

I've heard good things about the free Coursera course 'Blockchain and Decentralized System Technologies', you might want to give it a try as well!

Chainshot and Blockgeeks are quality platforms for blockchain learning, but they may be a bit advanced for beginners. Start with the basics and then move on to those platforms for more specialized knowledge and projects.
