Hi all

I am going to start my graduate studies in energy Optimization in fall 24. With some time in hand I want to learn basics of Julia. I know about power flow and know coding in Python.

Can someone suggest some references and some dummy projects?

And get acquainted with [juliaup](https://github.com/JuliaLang/juliaup), VSCode and [git](https://gitforwindows.org/) …

Shameless plug to get you started with projects once you know the basic syntax:
