In this video, I share some thoughts about getting started in geometry nodes. I give some overall thoughts about what I think it is best to focus on first, that being the low-level or 'basic' nodes, such as the vector math node, and then explain a bit about how I think about and visualize what happens when you use a vector math node. I cover the very very basics, addition, subtraction, scalars, and normalization.
