The Bioconductor site

The Bioconductor site has a wealth of great information. Here are some pointers

Package vignettes are a very important source of information for Bioconductor packages. You can access package vignettes from the help menu in RStudio or from the package page on Bioconductor.

Software packages; note the use of biocViews to the left of the page, this might be useful if you are searching for specific functionality.

The Bioconductor support site; this is a great place to ask questions.
The posting guide for the Bioconductor support site. Read this before asking questions; it will maximize your chance of getting a useful answer.
Stack Overflow (R); this is a popular help site for computer programming.

R Documentation; a search engine for all documentation from all packages from CRAN and Bioconductor.
R Seek; like ’R Documentation" but it also search a few other sites and is based on a different search engine.

Package vignettes are installed inside of R. You can access vignettes in the following ways

Through the online help (for example in RStudio).
Through the vignettes() function in R, but that requires you know the name of the vignette.
Through the browseVignettes() function in Biobase which shows a list of installed vignettes in a browser (this is a different interface to the RStudio help interface).
