Welcome to our community! I am not familiar with Vera's built-in functionality, but the likelihood that Hubitat requires any programming is very slim to none. There are many built-in apps, as well as community projects that cover even most complex use cases, so learning Groovy, which is the scripting language that Hubitat offers, is not needed for 99.9% of our users. Those who find scripting easier, Groovy is an object oriented language based on Java.
I am sure that others who came from Vera will chime in, but to get you started, check out this thread for what to expect when you are ready to dive in:
