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:

* [https://airbus-seclab.github.io/AFLplusplus-blogpost/](https://airbus-seclab.github.io/AFLplusplus-blogpost/)

Here is good workflow description for frida_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structure is), these links have you covered (some are outdated though):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](https://github.com/P1umer/AFLplusplus-protobuf-mutator)
* libprotobuf raw:
  [https://github.com/bruce30262/libprotobuf-mutator_fuzzing_learning/tree/master/4_libprotobuf_aflpp_custom_mutator](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](https://github.com/thebabush/afl-libprotobuf-mutator)
* Superion for AFL++:
  [https://github.com/adrian-rt/superion-mutator](https://github.com/adrian-rt/superion-mutator)
