The Github page for afl-fuzz has a really excellent Getting Started doc.

Sounds cool. Could you share the link to their official git repo?
Hmm. Doesn't look like very "hands on" to me (README.md). Or then I just couldn't find the document you mentioned in the previous post. But I guess one has to learn these things by trial and error then.
It did not take me much time to find https://github.com/google/AFL/blob/master/docs/QuickStartGui... which I guess is the doc he referenced.

There you go: https://github.com/google/AFL/blob/master/docs/QuickStartGui...

For those looking for tutorials; in addition to the one already linked, I’m quite sure there are quite a few decent YouTube videos about fuzzing with AFL.
https://llvm.org/docs/LibFuzzer.html might also be quite interesting due to the potentially significantly higher fuzzing speed (no fork(2) for each try).
