# How to learn

To learn any new tool it is important to have some goal unrelated to the tool itself. Maybe you have a pet project or a project at work you want to try it on. There is a lot on the menu on the left here, so let us give you some pointers to the most important docs to understand Overmind.

* \*\*\*\*[**The introduction video**](https://youtu.be/82Aq_ujnBQw) *\*\**gives you a quick overview of what Overmind is
* You will benefit from getting into the overall structure with [**Configuration**](https://overmindjs.org/v27/core/structuring-the-app)**,** then moving on to the specific concepts of [**State**](https://overmindjs.org/v27/core/defining-state)**,** [**Actions**](https://overmindjs.org/v27/core/writing-application-logic) **\*\*and \[**Effects*\*]\(core/running-side-effects.md)\\*\*\*\*
* If you use Typescript it can be a good idea to already now explore how you use Overmind with [**Typescript**](https://overmindjs.org/v27/core/typescript)\*\*\*\*
* Ready to start building something? Check of the view packages for [**React**](https://overmindjs.org/v27/views/react), [**Angular**](https://overmindjs.org/v27/views/angular) or [**Vue**](https://overmindjs.org/v27/views/vue), to get you started
* Once you got a feel for it, the **Connecting components** guide will give you some more insight into how you use your state in the components
* From here it is totally up to you! Good luck and please visit our Discord channel for support
