Is there such a thing as an MSP432 launchpad guide for absolute beginners?
We are lucky enough that it's 2017 right now so there are plenty of resources. I will name just a few that I'm aware of:


General MSP430 LaunchPad Workshop. This is the resource I used when first started playing with MSP430 launchpads and it's indeed a good starting point for the beginners. It is based on CCS and supports many MSP430 launchpads including MSP432.
TI SimpleLink MSP432 academy. This would be a good choice for the next step as it covers more specific and advanced things such as multithreading, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth communication, and the like. It's also based on CCS.
Video training series can be used as an overview of MSP432 architecture and internal modules/peripherals.
As mentioned in the comments already, there are some free online courses available for MSP432. I personally participated in the edX course Real-time Bluetooth Networks - Shape The World (great course btw). The downsides are that this course is a little bit advanced for the beginners and also uses Keil as IDE
