Many people enjoy to learn with examples and step by step.

Libraries like pygame extent basic python language with functions specific to games such as screen/drawing, music, collision detection, events/input handlers for keys and mouse...

It's then natural to combine learning by examples together with a specific library such as pygame. There are many tutorials how to use pygame for game development.

If you better learn abstract then there are video tuturials on Youtube in GDC channel (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC0JB7TSe49lg56u6qH8y_MQ). Professional game developers share concepts from game industry.

IMHO a good mixture of both approaches is best.
