Anyone know's any good tutorial references? I mean the ones that actually explain things, not just give you the code and that's it...
Also is it possible to create meter completely with LUA? Im more comfortable with passing arguments and not manipulating with global wars. Any references on these is more than welcome.

Re: Two questions
It's really a bit difficult to do "high level" tutorials for Rainmeter, due to the vast amount of stuff it can do, and the unlimited ways you can mix and match capabilities. You are more likely to ask a specific "how can I do xxx?" and hopefully whoever helps you with that does so with an explanation of how they accomplished it, and not just code.
Do be sure to use all these references:
https://docs.rainmeter.net/manual/
https://docs.rainmeter.net/manual/getting-started/basic-tutorials/
https://docs.rainmeter.net/tips/
https://forum.rainmeter.net/viewforum.php?f=15

Re: Two questions
The way I learned, after getting through the beginner's guide, was simply by looking at other skins, figuring out how they did something, and tweaking it for my own use. I've also found it immensely helpful to just go through the documentation, one section at a time, getting as much information as you can. I've discovered many things in these ways.
You could also just ask for help, like jsmorley said.

Re: Two questions
Well docs are always first step, specially if there is some examples. But i dont find them explaining anything more than basic things. But thx for help, i guess i will have to learn the hard way (from someone else's work...)
