Sometimes the official docs are just right. Django is good, for example. I had to do small Ubuntu sysadmin task recently, the tutorials I found were incomprehensible. The official docs were crystal clear.

But we've all seen the reverse, as well, and a combination of SO, YouTube, Reddit, and random tutorials is the only way to figure it out. Especially when you encounter the "This describes version 3.1, and everything in 4.5 is completely different, good luck" official docs.
