How to actually use FM synthesis — A practical guide

FM synthesis really isn't that hard, there just aren't a lot of general tutorials on how to use it. I skip over the basic premise of FM and instead touch on FM theory and how you can use that theoretical knowledge to start designing sounds with FM, without feeling like you're changing parameters at random.
