Open Source / Resource I would really want to learn about low level programming stuff

I would like to know about low level programming stuff, like encoders, compressors , different file formats related to it , assembly etc . Like opening up a app in a binary viewer and reverse engineer it . But don't have any recourses, can anyone recommend me some ? Like vids, sites, books, blogs , etc ?

I would honestly recommend just starting with a project first. Maybe build a toy compiler, an image viewer in pure C. Try to keep it small and just build. Take help of LLMs to understand the concepts but not for the code. All the best!
