Hi @Anonymous 

You can get to know the Power BI outline from here:

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/

I believe the best approach to create model is to start with the books:

• Building Data Models With Power Pivot

• Power Pivot and Power BI: The Excel User’s Guide to DAX, Power Query, Power BI & Power Pivot in Exce...

• Learn to Write DAX: A practical guide to learning Power Pivot for Excel and Power BI

• M Is for (Data) Monkey: A Guide to the M Language in Excel Power Query

• The Definitive Guide to DAX

Also you can use the Community Blog site for blogging:

@Anonymous - The absolute best learning material is my book, Learn Power BI.

Just kidding, I would start with this: https://powerbi.microsoft.com/en-us/learning/

Depends on what you want to learn and how you learn. @marcorusso's book on DAX is the gold standard for DAX. I also like @Phil_Seamark 's books if you are coming from SQL. @MattAllington has some fantastic books as well. Soooooo many blogs, I thought there was a page on this site that cataloged them but I can't find it. powerbi.tips is great @Mike_Carlo . Power BI weekly - https://powerbiweekly.info/issue-73.html

Lots of stuff I forgot!
