Hi Peter,

You can find the coding standards page here[1]. Here is an amazing getting
started article by Jacek Wielemborek[2]. You can find a lot of community
related wiki pages here[3]. All the NSE documentation can be found on this
page[4], while this page contains a lot of Nmap related documentation[5].

If you are planning on contributing to the Lua based NSE, I would advise
you to have a look at link [4]. See some code of already existing scripts
and libraries, have a script idea in mind and use[4] whenever you want to
find out how things work. The IRC channel is usually pretty helpful.
