I really do want to learn and love it. It seems I love all the things which are told about it, but, I think JJ has a tutorial problem. I would really want something which focuses on concepts of it rather than workflows. May be some diagrams? I know that JJ-ists think that it is very easy to understand wall of cli printed text, with ascii trees and hash prefixes in bold, but it really isn't. Especially for target audience of tutorials (folks new to JJ).

https://jj-for-everyone.github.io is the most approachable jj tutorial I've seen. I wouldn't say it focuses on workflows, but it does take a "learn by doing" approach a bit more than the "data model first" approach it sounds like you might prefer.

It's still a young tool, it's not surprising that tutorials are a bit lacking (honestly there are surprisingly many for its age). Maybe be the change you want to see in the world and make one? (Which would be an... interesting... way to learn the tool for sure).
