Choose your path. Build real understanding. Every lesson explains not just how to write code, but why it works, when to use it, and what happens under the surface. Start anywhere, progress at your pace.
Start from zero. Learn what programming is, how computers think, and write your first lines of code. Variables, logic, loops, and functions explained from first principles.
Arrays, linked lists, trees, graphs, sorting, searching. Not just memorization. Understanding how data organization affects performance and when each structure matters.
Memory, processes, the operating system, file systems, networking. The layers between your code and the hardware. Why programs behave the way they do.
HTML, CSS, JavaScript, HTTP, servers, databases. How web applications work end-to-end. Frontend, backend, and everything that connects them.
SQL, database design, indexes, queries, transactions, normalization. How databases store and retrieve data efficiently. Why performance matters at scale.
Scaling, distributed systems, caching, load balancing, microservices. Design decisions for real applications. Trade-offs, patterns, and what works at different scales.
How JavaScript handles asynchronous code. Event loop mechanics, promises, and why async/await makes concurrent programming clearer.
Where variables live, how memory is allocated, when to use malloc, and why memory leaks happen. Understanding pointers and ownership.
Why some queries are fast and others are slow. How indexes work, when they help, when they hurt, and how to design them for your access patterns.
Request methods, headers, status codes, cookies, sessions. What happens between typing a URL and seeing a page. The protocol that powers the web.
The CAP theorem in practice. Why distributed systems can't have everything. Trade-offs in real-world architectures and when each choice makes sense.
Inheritance, composition, polymorphism, encapsulation. Not just the definitions, but when to use each pattern and why object-oriented design matters.
Commits, branches, merges, rebases. What Git actually does under the hood. Understanding the data model makes complex operations make sense.
Resources, methods, status codes, versioning. Designing APIs that make sense, scale well, and don't break when requirements change.
Pick a lesson. Read carefully. Take your time. Real understanding is worth the effort.
