2. **Take a look at the Documentation**

Later on, you can check the all things in Documentation did you got the concept/ usage of it(after learning language from different resources).

5. **Consume and Create**

I’m pretty sure your here to Consume the Content. But Most People failed to share their Learning experience to World.

What I suggest is Share what you learned to World.

If it is more than that, Write a Book about all things you learn.
