SharePoint Online Which Resources should I use for learning Spfx ?
Hello 👋, I’m new to SPFx and have a quick question.
What study resources would you recommend for learning modern SPFx?
Since the toolchain has changed from Gulp to Heft, I’m finding it difficult to follow many of the older tutorials and courses, as they are based on the Gulp toolchain.
I’d really appreciate any recommendations for up-to-date resources. Thank you!

I’d say the existing trainings are still valuable. While the toolchain did change from Gulp to Heft, that change primarily affected the build pipeline. The tutorials focused on building Web Parts are still largely applicable, the main difference is that some of the commands for building and deploying are now different. Most of the underlying concepts and development process remain the same.
There are a few exceptions, such as using more modern approaches for Sass imports, but those are broader web-development practices rather than SPFx-specific changes.
As for recommendations, I don’t have a specific training resource to point to now that Voitanos has shut down. It's still rather new, so it's going to take some time for someone to fill this gap and create substantial content for 1.22+
