The best way to learn a new language is to follow a proper structured resource which would cover syntax, semantic, tooling & ecosystem and best practices.

I think that's only proper when you have basic understanding of the language. I don't think it is proper to read full c++ doc if you don't even know what is ptr

Sure, you will learn some basic syntax and maybe how to solve algorithmic tasks in a vacuum. But actual development is much wider. If you going to build web app you need to know how does web server work, databases, network, HTML/CSS

I think the best way is to find something interesting or even copy someone else idea and start building it. Page by page, button by button
