Methods
The most common beginner method is a layer-by-layer solution, similar to solving a 3x3. Popular methods among speedcubers are Ortega or Guimond, which orient both layers separately and permute them together, CLL, which solves the cube in one algorithm after the first layer is complete, and EG, which extends CLL with additional algorithms to solve the cube in one algorithm after one face is oriented.
