I found this tutorial but I after a few minutes I left, because Video tutorials are annoying to follow is their a text version of this tutorial about MenuProvider and BlockEntites? He creates a block called Gemstone Cutter similar to a brewing stand. I am a complete noob at this. A simple search leads me nowhere.

Afaik, there are no text tutorials about menus yet, and the one I'm writing probably won't be out for a while since there is a lot of content to cover. As for block entities, there's a general section on it in the forge docs. Though if you want to handle specific logic, the best thing to do is to look in vanilla for something similar, strip out the parts you need, and improve upon it to get rid of some inefficiencies.

How do I look at the vanilla code in Intellij IDEA? Edit: Also it seems stupid that there are no text tutorials, I would assume those would be the first things.

Google the IDE and look up the features necessary to do so. There is plenty of text and videos about how to use it.

Everything is written by volunteers and they have to be maintained by volunteers. Additionally, when it comes to the official docs or the community wiki, there are only so many people who have time and are willing to do that. It requires a lot of research to be able to write something competent without providing copy-paste elements. So, unless you're willing to hire people to do so, contribute to the people who keep Forge going, or write some yourself, expect that there probably won't be any documentation for anything besides from simple elements.
