Learning DirectX 12 in 2023
I’ll be honest, this also was nice - but didn’t do a good job of explaining relationships between parts of the pipeline. It’s likely because they also have a book you can buy that goes into more detail. I also had issues spinning up the directx12-seed repo. Since my PC / graphics card doesn’t support all the DX12 features (like raytracing), the app would error out instead of running. As someone new to DirectX 12, stuff like this is an immediate productivity killer.

The DXTK also has a great tutorial series on creating a game loop that breaks down the DX12 pipeline through the process. They also have a repo with Xbox game SDK samples (not games — but features you’d use in games like gamepad input).
