I always use both. Cause the documentation gives me context to other parts of the system.
Stackoverflow for logic. :) -
thecode24707yStackoverflow is definitely the easier way around because you get pretty clean and well explained answers but official documentation is still needed because not everything is on Stackoverflow and you've to sometimes read the documentation and actually find the solution for yourself, implement it and maybe wait for someone to come with the same problem as yours in future on Stackoverflow so you could answer them. :D

Kimmax111097yMore important is that you have to learn how to understand, interpret and use a documentation. Times will come where you use a lib that's not publicly available and you only have the manual. If you never worked with them as a reference before you gonna make yourself wet pretty quickly
