First, Handbrake is a transcoder, and will only work with unencrypted DVDs ( https://trac.handbrake.fr/wiki/Sources). Decrypting and transcoding are two completely separate tasks and so most open source solutions will take the form of different utilities to tackle the problems independently. It should also be noted that there are legal issues surrounding the decoding of DVD and blu-ray media.
Handbrake is pretty much the king of the hill these days. There are Windows and Mac versions so you should be able to get some tutorials on youtube if you are not successful with the documentation. Personally I use MakeMKV (I purchased a license and run this on Linux), and Handbrake together for the rare cases when I want to do this (I own very few physical disks these days).
