Each project often has its own official website containing extensive documentation explaining not only how set up the software but also how certain features work exactly under different settings etc.. Github repos can often provide more insights into an algorithm’s capabilities by providing examples written by users who may have already solved a problem similar to yours before. Lastly don't forget about local user groups where passionate people eager to help newcomers meet in person share their experiences while demystifying some technical hurdles along the way.
