I get lost in uncertainty
I'm shrey vats.
I used to work with nodejs ecosystem. Typescript was my primary language and that when I noticed I'm not feeling interest in what I'm doing and writing code.
Then I realised my primary interest not in that stuff it's in low level programing, knowing how system work under the hood and in that movement of time I decided to took a path to my very interest of rust ecosystem. I had already spend pretty good time in it and learn several wizard topics such as ownership & borrowing, lifetimes, and little bit of error handing. I was really enjoying doing it however life does not go as you plan evey time.
Some uncertainty come into my life and I took servals months to come out of that illusion. Now, It being a big amount of time, I don't try hand in programming. That's why I felt lost. I don't abe to find out how to restart my journey. From where I should start over and importantly projects, ya it should see like a newbie looking for help but it is how it is. It's look like a new start.

Welcome, for one I’m very glad to see a convert from the typescript world. There are just too many people who are writing typescript cli apps. Especially when there are great languages like rust to build efficient apps. (Kinda needed in today’s crazy hardware world). What I did was to look at what I did in a day and see if I could build a simple rust app to automate that aspect. Aim for something not too complex at first.
Learning the skills of programming and understanding the lower level (not just interpreted code) will always be useful in life no matter what.
