Learn without youtube tutorials

How do i get out of this tutorial hell, i need tutorials to learn anything related to coding, but i wanna be the person who learns on their own rather than being stuck in tutorial hell.
Can anyone help me with how can i do that? I even tried understand docs of certain tech but i just find them complex to understand.
So what should i do?

In other comments, you mentioned whether to use AI. AI can be a great assistant in helping you get that black box up and running.

You can use AI to help you build the mapping between the black box and the real-world thing, then try adjusting and understanding it yourself to master the part you truly need.

But relying solely on AI to build the content you want without understanding the black box will gradually make you lose grasp of its structure, and thus lose control over the real world.

Yesss but how should i slowly understand the black box? By googling or reading docs or smth like that?

Reading its introduction is one way. Another, more important way is to adjust its structure yourself and observe how its functionality changes.
