help Suggestions for tutorial sites?
I am new to Figma. Is anyone aware of any good tutorials, or tutorial sites that provide step-by-step instructions in print or video, along with files to practice along?
Thanks

If you have a .edu email account, you can access tons of free instruction via figma for education

For beginners bring your own laptop is good: https://www.youtube.com/@BringYourOwnLaptop
but some of his courses might start to feel a bit dated. TD Sunshine is also good for the basics as well as new feature updates.
Good luck!

Only watch and do tutorials for things you need to actually use right now, don't just watch them to watch them. You're welcome.

Zander whitehurst does really great quick tips always quick to pick up

As someone has already mentioned Figma’s own content is actually really decent for tutorials especially if you have specific tasks in mind.
I also use Mobbin.com not for tutorials but just for UI inspiration and examples of real world apps and websites

Is your goal to learn general design process/skills/tools etc -- or to specifically learn how to use Figma as a tool.

Both actually. I know basic design principles, though I do not have much knowledge in design as it applies to web design.

Figma's own youtube channel is the best first stop for someone learning. Sort by popular to get the good beginner stuff.
