Roblox offers its own tutorials. Youtube is a great place to find tutorials. The time it took you to gain access to the DevForum should have been enough time for you to figure this out.
I’d start with here: Documentation - Roblox Creator Hub

there are a lot of tutorials on YouTube, you can watch them (while practicing) and search for the things that you don’t understand well
after you learn the basics and more basic stuff you can try to make a game
this td game tutorial is good How to make a Tower Defense Game - #1 Path Navigation (youtube.com)
and if you want to learn advanced stuff Suphi Kaner - YouTube or the forum

I think it would be better to learn scripting through Roblox’s Documentations

i don’t think its easier than video tutorials for beginners (that may be just a preference) but I didn’t find it helpful when i first started it
images + voice is better than plain text

Yeah it would, even i was dumb and i learnt 90% of scripting throught Youtube. It was pretty hard but my endless motivation made me it easy.
Till the day i found documentation, and it boosted a lot and i earnt a lot of time.
So… what i recommend is… Documentation as other said, and sometimes Youtube to inspire and more. Because you might not find all ideas on how to do complex things even you know all basics and advanced stuff on scripting.
While watching youtube videos, you can get an idea on how to structure the code and stuff. (i don’t know how to say it)

The way I learn new things is by reading code from the roblox developer hub, and scripts from the toolbox line by line, and trying to comprehend why that line of code is there, what does it do, what will happen if we remove it, etc…

Dont get stuck following tutorials, learn the basics: Variables, Functions, Loops and Conditions, then build simple projects and get more advance over time.

If you want to learn how to script on ROBLOX, I recommend you try to learn the language that inspired Luau in the first place: Lua!
Alternatively, here’s a guide in case you want a more interactive version.
The moment you understand the very basics of how Lua works, it will start to come to you naturally. While it doesn’t cover everything in regards to Lua, it should at least help you get a head start on learning how to script.
Remember that if you don’t understand something or if you want to learn more about a topic, don’t be afraid to ask questions.
The fact that you’re asking a question right now means that you’re on the right track.

For free, you can look into youtube videos, just make sure you aren’t watching those “copy this script and put it into your zombie” kind of stuff, since you won’t learn from those. alvinBlox is a good channel to start off learning to script. GnomeCode is also a good channel to look into for coding videos as well.
On the other hand, if you’re fine with spending $44, I’d highly recommend looking for a course by Mr. Fire on Udemy. I’m currently doing his for the more intermediate and advanced topics, but he actually has 56 hours worth of content in his course, and he starts you from the beginning as well. You’re able to review the syllabus to see all the content before buying.

I think its better to watch YouTube videos, and try to understand them better through documentations as you continue scripting
