If you do not want to follow a tutorial but rather try an exercise type of training, then we can highly recommend the following:
Here is a good workflow description (and tutorial) for qemu_mode:

If you are interested in fuzzing structured data (where you define what the structure is), these links have you covered (some are outdated though):
- libprotobuf for AFL++: https://github.com/P1umer/AFLplusplus-protobuf-mutator
- libprotobuf raw: https://github.com/bruce30262/libprotobuf-mutator_fuzzing_learning/tree/master/4_libprotobuf_aflpp_custom_mutator
- libprotobuf for old AFL++ API: https://github.com/thebabush/afl-libprotobuf-mutator
- Superion for AFL++: https://github.com/adrian-rt/superion-mutator
