I have no intentions of actually using Kalis long list of tools for any real reason, but I really like learning new stuff. I thought it'd be fun to crack my own wifi password and stuff like that just to understand how it all works. Is there any good place to learn how to use the tools, and how they work?

Otherwise, I can just Google each tool and learn that way. I didn't know if there was a good "step by step" guide of what I should learn and in what order though

I think usually the way to go is the other way around; you find something interesting you want to do and look up how to do that. In the process you will most likely find answers that include tools that come with kali.

If you need some ideas maybe TryHackMe (more beginner friendly) or HackTheBox (kinda expects you to know what you are looking for) are good places to start. There's also tons of write-ups and videos about both of those should you get stuck at any place for too long.

Have fun!

I thought that might be the case, but like I said, I don't really have any projects or ideas after figuring out how to crack my wifi password. Just like learning!

Appreciate the direction!
