I like to do quick learning, then decide on an implementation direction, try it out, see if it works, then decide whether to continue or jump into another direction. I aim to get faster feedback.
Best learning is learning by doing. Making a Sandbox Project, iterating quickly.
I use a similar concept for Optivem Journal. My TDD in Legacy Code series has Homework Tasks at the bottom of the guides, with steps, and then readers can try it out on their Sandbox Project on GitHub.
Then can transfer that learning to Real Life Projects.
Yes, the Pareto principle - applied to learning.

100% agree on learn by doing. It's the core belief behind Coding Challenges.
