Starting off, you'll want to get your hands on Valve's Hammer Editor, the tool used for creating and editing maps for CS:GO. It's part of the Steam Workshop tools for CS:GO. Install that first. Then, dive into some tutorials – there's a ton of them on YouTube that are insanely helpful, walking you through the basics to more advanced techniques. You’ll need to learn about creating brushes (the basic building blocks of your map), entity placement (like spawn points), and how to compile your map to run in CS:GO. Also, don't forget to playtest your map with friends to get feedback!

Simple! Just use the Hammer Editor, but remember, making a good map takes time. Learn, experiment, and get feedback.

Honestly, map making's a lot of work. Why not just download practice maps made by others? Way easier.
