I fount codecrafters.io

Recently, I stumbled upon CodeCrafters, and I must say—it's amazing! If you're someone who enjoys challenging yourself with hands-on projects, you’ll love it. At CodeCrafters, you can dive deep into practical, out-of-the-box projects like building Redis, creating your own DNS server, or even developing low-level systems that help you understand how core technologies really work.

Currently, I'm working on building my own DNS server, and this project has given me a solid understanding of how DNS operates behind the scenes. From managing DNS requests to exploring the protocol in detail, I've gained insights that I wouldn't have gotten from theory alone. It’s a satisfying and eye-opening experience to reconstruct something we use every day!

It gives you the building blocks to figure things out on your own, which makes the learning process much more rewarding.

Here are a few reasons why I highly recommend checking them out:

  • Real-world project experience: You’re not just learning concepts; you're applying them to build something functional and real.
  • Step-by-step guidance: Each project comes with structured guidance, which makes challenging tasks more approachable.

Whether you're a developer looking to level up your skills or someone who's curious about how the web and its infrastructure work, CodeCrafters is an excellent platform to explore.

If you’re ready to take on the challenge, I highly recommend checking them out here. You won’t be disappointed!

Pro Tip: Start small and work your way up. With projects ranging from beginner-friendly to advanced, there's something for every skill level.

Happy coding!

Note: I’ll be creating a detailed blog on building and hosting the DNS server soon, so stay connected for more updates!
