Am total newbie to jitter, looking to replicate typewriter effect to include adjustable parameters (font, speed, alignment etc), with glitch effect on simple colour background with adjustable RGB parameters.

Whats the learning curve on something on this, and where to start please?.

By typewriter effect you mean something like this?

Objects to look out for are jit.gl.text2d and listprocessing such as the zl-objects to simulate the text being typed. No idea what you mean with "glitch effect" but you'll probably need to look at jit.gl.node for that so you can capture the scene and apply post-processing to it. 

Once you check that out you'll also understand how to apply the parameters you mention.
