A design philosophy called "Progressive Disclosure" tries to tackle this problem, where a tool is supposed to present a minimal set of functionality initially to allow a user to be productive without being an expert and progressively "reveal" more complex features as the user becomes more familiar with the tool and attempts to do more complex things.

I've heard the programming language Swift followed this philosophy during development, though I've never written any Swift code to know how well it worked out.
