Official Magento Documentation: The official Magento documentation provides comprehensive guides, tutorials, and references covering all aspects of Magento, from installation to advanced customization and development. You can find it on the Magento website.

Answer 2

According to my perspective,

You can go through the "Adobe Certified Professional - Adobe Commerce Developer" Certification Exam syllabus.

https://experienceleague.adobe.com/en/docs/certification/program/technical-certifications/ac/ac-professional/ac-p-developer

This exam covers beginner to advanced developer-related topics.

This way you can explore Magento.

Additional tips would be:

• Learn the file structure of Magento and what you can find where you need to reference the core. vendor folder will be your professor.

• Learn how a theme and a module are supposed to be structured in the file system. Then pick one to learn first.

• You can download some free Magento extensions, Check how their developer code, how they implement code, how they fulfill the requirement.

• Learn to debug, If you are good at debugging, You will definitely pro yourself in development and customization.

• Install Xdebug, and Magento Coding Standard Tools, Learn & observe how things work in Magento in foreground and background.

• Once you've picked one, pick a project based on that part of Magento for example: changing the design of the category page or creating a module to display a maintenance alert modal with data from the admin console.

• You can also take reference of any e-commerce site, go through the the site, List out functionalities that the site has, Prepare modules and try to implement it in Magento.

Again, It's based on my experience, everyone learns in different ways.
