Learning paths
Three sequences through the free tools on this site, arranged in the order that makes the published rules easiest to read.
What this is
Each path is a sequence of the free tools and references already on this site, put in a readable order. It is education, not advice. No path asks for a fact about anyone or decides anything. Every step links onward, to the tool itself or to the official page behind it.
