Greetings! I am a beginner and just learning the Aztec network, I have a proposal to create a special category on the forum for beginners, where we can ask any questions and get answers from experienced users.

For beginner questions there are the discord servers for Aztec and Noir. You can ask questions there, or in the weekly office hours.
