Altium Official

Expand

The following is Altium's simplified getting started guide. I find it quite clear, but at times oversimplifying. Definitely great for beginners: https://my.altium.com/altium-designer/getting-started

The following is Altium’s official documentation. Navigation is via the bar on the left. I find this to be very unorganized, but when you find the right pages, the information is 100% complete. Great for any questions you have that you want the full answer for: https://www.altium.com/documentation/altium-designer

I definitely recommend navigating the official documentation by just using Google. It is much better than navigating their sidebar.

Note

Make sure you select the latest version of Altium! The documentation website has versions going all the way back to 2015. It typically is via drop down in the top left or top right.
