Also if you like graphics programming, some beginner tutorials etc could also be: Yt playlist by ChiliTomatoNoodle about DirectX11 LearnOpenGL.com to learn about OpenGL ofcourse ScratchAPixel.com which has a bunch of tutorials about the common rendering techniques such as rasterization and ray tracing
So in general you just do your own projects and when you encounter a problem like "how do I make a window?" you use your internet search engine and find a library for that. Also you should check out and bookmark http://isocpp.github.io/CppCoreGuidelines/CppCoreGuidelines
Just start doing your own projects. Doesn't matter what exactly it is, you can do anything you like. Build your own Minecraft clone, make a Newtonian gravity simulation, build an emulator for your favourite console from your childhood, or whatever else you can think of. Here's a list containing some ideas what you could make if you don't have your own: https://github.com/danistefanovic/build-your-own-x . You can also just use the internet to search for exercise websites and do those, https://adventofcode.com/ is a great and fun way to learn a new language.

Oh, you'd be surprised. I often need a browser with some references opened up and some (just some) YouTube videos. That usually takes up about 70-80% of RAM. My solution during the past few months was to use the open source https://github.com/cdr/code-server project on a VPS which opens up as a browser tab - there are great YouTube tutorials for that but the whole process is cumbersome. Their version of VSCode has been fighting with the official C++ marketplace extension which is not supported by code-server. I'm just casually looking for alternatives.
And some easier libraries for game development could be SDL2.0 which is used in this tutorial that I used for my study intake project Or very similar SFML
I also recently attempted to make my first open source PR to Mumble (https://github.com/mumble-voip/mumble/pull/4808 - god, it's so close to done and has been for like 2 months), and it's pretty much the same story there. Learning the C++ necessary to do it wasn't difficult... Setting up the build using a new tool (CMake) and setting up a new ID (Qt) to work on the UI was so far removed from C++, but now I guess I can say I know how to use those tools.
