Hi everyone,

I want to start learning scripting in ServiceNow from the basics.
Can anyone guide me on:

  1. From where should I start?

  2. Which scripting topics should I learn first?

  3. What is the correct order to learn ServiceNow scripting?

  4. Which scripting areas are most important for a ServiceNow Developer role?

  5. Any good practice scenarios or resources for beginners?

Currently, I know basic ServiceNow administration and now I want to move into scripting and development.

Thanks in advance.
