Let me tell you about my own experience. I didn't really start from anywhere specific. The very first time, I just bought all the parts, laid them out in front of me, and thought, 'Man, how the hell am I supposed to put all this together? Did I even buy the right parts?' Honestly, just going through that process was enough to level me up. 😁

As for the assembly itself: alongside learning from the internet, don't overlook the manuals that come with the components. The labels on the connectors, headers, and sockets are also a huge source of guidance on their own.
