The MoonMath Manual: A Practitioner's Guide to Zero-Knowledge Proof Systems
The MoonMath Manual is a comprehensive, example-driven introduction to zero-knowledge proof systems, covering the mathematics from finite fields through elliptic curves to Groth16 and PLONK. Written to be accessible to practitioners without a cryptography PhD, it became a widely-used self-study resource for the ZK ecosystem.
Why and How zk-SNARK Works
Maksym Petkus provides a pedagogical ground-up explanation of zk-SNARKs, answering not just how they work but why each component exists. Structured to build from first principles with no cryptography prerequisites, making it the standard accessible reference for developers wanting to understand the math behind zkEVM and privacy-preserving protocols.
