Resources for learning V as a first language

[chrisdebian]

Posted in Discord, but I suspect others may ask a similar question in the future, so it may be good to have a record, here.

"Hi, all. My first post, I've only known about 'V', for an hour! I really like the philosophy and goals of the language. I am new to programming; is V too new and immature for a beginner to learn? If it isn't, could anyone point me to any good resources, for a complete beginner? I like books, but I'm guessing we're not at that stage, yet. Cheers, Chris"
