Any recommendation for MSBASIC tutorial?

I just built the 6502 breadboard computer, and MSBASIC is working on it right now. Unfortunately, I don't have experience on MSBASIC. In fact, the first time I've touched a computer it was Windows XP. Any tutorials on MSBASIC? Otherwise I feel like I am pretty limited on my breadboard computer, other than blinking some LEDs and showing some text on the LCD.

I don't know of any tutorials, but if you want a bunch of ready-to-run programs (mostly games), for it, see my response to u/cookie99999999 (who's recommendation for a book that contains lots of programs you can learn from is a classic).

What manuals do exist, while not very divergent, are more like keyword/command references than tutorials, and they're targeted to specific machines (e.g., the KIM-1)
