2. **The Definitive Guide to Yii**

The [Definitive Guide to Yii](https://www.yiiframework.com/doc/guide/2.0) is the *central and most important* learning resource for Yii. It is *definitive* and was written by the core Yii developers. Just walk through all pages from top to the bottom. _Tip: Also check out the comments on the bottom of the pages._
 

 3. **Doing stuff**    At some point while you read the Definitive Guide you'll want to get started with coding in Yii. If you begin with the conventional starting point then you stand a better chance of getting help when you need it. Install the Yii2 [demo application](https://github.com/yiisoft/yii2-app-basic). Follow the instructions in the README of those apps to install. Then study the code and start experimenting. [   > Note: Stick to the basic app for learning. The advanced app adds a lot of confusing complication for team development and multiple websites in one project.]

4. **Got confused what's happening?**

Learn to use the [Debug toolbar and debugger](http://www.yiiframework.com/doc-2.0/guide-tool-debugger.html). With the debug toolbar you can view what's going on behind the scenes. It exposes your app's configuration, requests and responses, database queries, and a lot of other key information.
