I usually learn by...

  • using it in one of my side projects
  • using it while contributing to OSS
  • using it at work

So I guess I'll usually learn/practice by using it 😉.

Especially if you can't practice it at work or don't have a side project that fits, I'd strongly recommend contributing to OSS that uses the language/framework. This way, you often even get reviews of your code for free.
