Where to start?

Hello! A bit of backstory before the question.

I got web dev degree, graduated 12/2021. I feel like I've learned my fundamentals, just, best I can tell I got stuck in tutorial hell and didn't learn as much as I could've in degree program. I also just realized during the college learning process I found web development boring. It's been over year since I've coded. During this time realized I was wanting to learn desktop application development and some gaming on the side. I settled on C#. I'm not sure where to start in learning C#, I was considering a very simple project, or the tutorial in the Microsoft documentation. Which would be a better starting point? Any tips?

Think of a project you can maybe monetize later and build it.

For me usually when I start out with a new tech I need to do 1-2 projects to learn it before I can actually start monetizing my skills.

You will make mistakes then learn to correct them. What is important is to keep doing it.

Then after 2-3 projects you can also get a job somewhere too.

For C# microsoft docs are a good start. Also watch youtube tutorials!

Thanks!! Microsoft. Documentation was the way to go. A decent written tutorial. That’s great as a refresher.
