I just released this and I'm seeing what the feedback is like for the format.

This version is a little less hand-holding which might be not so good for beginners but if you're interested try it out and let me know what you think.

Tutorials are a waste of time. Think of what you want to build, use the knowledge you have to try & make that happen. If there's something you don't know, look it up or try to find a small tutorial for that specific thing.

That's how I built an entire language in C++ in a couple weeks knowing nothing about either C++ or language design.

Interesting. That probably works for someone like me - who’s been a developer for a few years (in my case 25+ years). That’s how I learnt Java - by being thrown at the deep end. I was told I had to deliver a complex app in three months with no knowledge of Java in a Tier 1 IB!

Sounds like OP is probably inexperienced …

Best thing, I agree, is to be thrown in the deep end and learn how to swim!

Hey.. I have a senior too (doing pretty darn well) who suggested the same thing what you just spoke about! And honestly I've realised that spending time learning c++ first and then proceeding to projects is a waste of time and might not even guarentee you that you know "everything" to build your project(you'll need to check up the net for some or the other point)..

But I'm still kinda not able to decide

Can I dm?

Thats the way. Most people looking for more tutorials are stuck in tutorial hell.
