I started by reading “Digital Design and Computer Architecture”. There’s new RISC-V edition https://a.co/d/imzGBK5. The book starts from Boolean logic and transistor technology and goes all the way to assembly programming with everything in between. Most importantly gives great introduction to HDLs. Next I played with a bunch of hardware projects specifically targeting inexpensive Arty-A7 board to get comfortable with FPGA tooling.
