* [[Xen concepts for beginners]]: Explains the fundamental building blocks of microtonal theory from the ground up. Short and readable. Introduces interval ratios, just intonation, regular temperament, MOS scales and EDOs/ETs. Does not assume prior knowledge.
* [[Nick Vuci's Fundamentals of Xen]], edited by Leo Coogan: Another explanation of the fundamental building blocks that emphasises different facets. Combining the two together will help you understand both better.
* [[Dave Keenan & Douglas Blumeyer's guide to RTT]] (D&D's guide): An extensive 9-part guide to [[regular temperament theory]] with many examples and visuals by [[Dave Keenan]] and [[Douglas Blumeyer]].

* ''[https://hackmd.io/@euwbah/extending-harmonic-principles-1 Extending harmonic principles in 12edo to 31edo (external link)]'': A course by @euwbah on HackMD, aimed at musicians familiar with common practice music theory but unfamiliar with microtones. It uses [[31edo]] as a bridge to generalize [[12edo]] concepts to a purer more abstract form, which can then be applied to any [[tuning]].
