How to create your own coin from source

[Den11]

Do you have detailed instructions on how you can make your own coin from the source code like BTC? I want to do it for myself.

If what you are after is understanding bitcoin/Bitcoin as a first step, focusing on the programming and components, the following thread mentions some seemingly useful resources and books: Study Bitcoin core source code.

The thread mentions resources such as:
https://developer.bitcoin.org/
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07NM32WGH
https://bitcoin.org/en/bitcoin-core/ (possibly still under DDOS attack currently, since I cannot reach the site)

If, on the other hand, you want to study how ERC20 tokens are created, there are some threads that point to it being fairly easy (being a token, you rely on already existing blockchain infrastructure): [BEGINNER FRIENDLY GUIDE] Launch your own TOKEN in a few simple steps!
It doesn’t go into the programming fundamentals for creating cintracts and such, but it’s a starting point to explore.

I’m sure others will chip-in with additional and better resources.

It would be easier to make an ERC-20 token on Ethereum. The advantage is that it is relatively simple and you don't have to worry about mining. Here are step-by-step instructions: https://medium.com/@business.wmacintosh/how-to-create-a-cryptocurrency-token-for-free-in-under-10-minutes-e8a05d7e31dd
