Workspaces for organising songs by genre or project is the library management feature that matters after the first twenty or thirty generations rather than on the first day. The beginner tutorial covering it early is the right decision because establishing organisation from the start is easier than reorganising a large unstructured library later.

Simple Mode for quick text-to-music generation with instrumental toggling, inspiration tags and random prompt ideas is the starting point that produces results with minimal specification. The random prompt ideas being available in Simple Mode is specifically useful when you know the mood or genre you want but do not know how to describe it precisely.

Custom Mode for specifying lyrics, style details and song structure for complete production control is the professional creation mode. The distinction being between getting something that sounds good quickly and getting something specific to a creative brief is the right framing for when to use each mode.

The interface organisation making the workspace clear before the creation modes are covered is the workflow logic that treats organisation as foundational rather than as an afterthought.

At what point in your Suno usage did you switch from Simple Mode to Custom Mode as your primary creation path?

Simple Mode being the right starting point rather than jumping straight to Custom Mode is the advice that would have saved me frustration in my first few sessions. The random prompt ideas in Simple Mode showed me what Suno considered valid creative directions before I tried to specify my own in Custom Mode. Learning the vocabulary of the tool from its own suggestions before trying to write complex style briefs is the right sequencing.
