I second this, haven’t used the tutorial, I just learned by doing in the beginning and than took a course at Uni, which was really good and got me all the way to quickly being able to set up my own templates and quickly get a document done.

LaTeX workshop with vscode is also great, however if you’re a (neo)vim user already, give https://www.github.com/lervag/vimtex a try, it’s an awesome plugin and works flawlessly, especially when combined with zathura as pdf reader.
