To learn a language, read and understand its specification. Then learn the tooling and libs that come with the compiler. Then just start reading other people's source from wherever while you write your own stuff. Reading the standard lib is helpful, ad is reading the source of any framework, but you have to know the language spec well for it to make sense.

It's much more productive to just start writing and reference to the spec (if they have any) along the way than start writing after reading the spec.
