Both!

Tutorial is the best option.
I prefer tutorials because they include examples and exercises, making it easier to learn by doing. However, documentation is great for detailed, in-depth explanations and specifications.

Tutorial, interactive ones are great
Both are good; it depends on what I am looking to solve faster. Sometimes, when exploring a product, I do not need to understand its complete features but just the meaning of something specific within it, and in such cases, documentation works well.
But, when I need to understand something completely, short and quick tutorials work best for me.
I prefer video tutorials. But it's always nice to have the documentation if I need to reference something quickly.
Documentation is better when it's not so simple.
Tutorial when things are simple.
Interactive tutorials when things are UI centric.
Does it make sense?
Tutorial for sure. I also prefer visual tutorials whenever possible.
Both- there are different types of learns- people who learn by reading & people who learn visually.
Depends on what kind of learner you are. I think it also depends on what your product looks like

Tutorial with the documentation to refer back to! I know, I'm asking for a lot 😅
Should be both.
I prefer tutorials because they provide hands-on experience and practical examples that make learning more engaging. However, having comprehensive documentation as a reference is invaluable for deeper understanding and troubleshooting.

I prefer to read well-written, comprehensive docs.
I find that I understand the content better when I have it in written form, so I prefer to have documentation.

Tutorial are easy to understand and people don't really have time to read entire documents and understand them too. But doing both would be perfect!
