Breaking into JASS

[Heavy-Gear]

I recently started to learn JASS. I have a decent amount of practice in other programming languages so it wasn't too hard to get the basics (functions, variables, loops etc). I've fiddled around and think I'm ready for the next step. What do I do?

I've seen libraries, scopes, private/public functions, structs, handle vars, tables, use of the game cache and other such things but I'm not actually sure exactly which ones correspond to each other.

From what I've seen, the next logical step to take in my learning experience would be scopes/private functions. This is vJASS right?

vJass is good choice, download JASS New generation Pack (JNGP) (link) and open vJASS documentation named jasshelpermanual which is in jasshelper folder. On this site are many vJASS tutorials, check some of them out like JASS: Basics of Structs by Andrewgosu tutorial.

EDIT:

This tutorial on wc3campaigns teaches very well nature of vJASS: vJass for spell makers (Moving from handle vars to structs) by Vexorian
