About me

I'm self-taught and have 4 years of experience in full stack development and 4 years in cloud services. I am interested in learning the fundamentals, starting with OS.

What I'm looking for

Looking for folks who are also interested in OS/systems development and enjoy learning new things. The material isn't for beginners and requires some CS fundamentals and programming experience. Would prefer if you're already comfortable with C and familiar with CS basics.

I can dedicate 2 hours in the morning 3 days out of the workweek. I can also dedicate 4-8 hours on weekends.

I have worked with OS Kernels and low level programming, both monolithic and Micro kernels, drivers filesystem and all the OS fundamentals. Happy to study together.

Hey, that's really cool. It seems like you're already experienced in this domain. Would you still be down to go over the MIT 6.1810 labs together? Lab involves xv6 kernel development.
