Most people begin their programming journey with high-level languages.
I chose a different road. 💡
Today, I started learning C — not just to add another language to my resume, but to understand how computers truly work at their core:
memory 🧠, processes ⚙️, pointers 🧩, and direct hardware interaction 🖥️.
Why C?
Because if I want to build something real, something foundational, I need to understand what’s happening beneath the surface.
🎯 The Long-Term Vision
My goal isn’t small or comfortable.
👉 I want to build my own Operating System — from scratch. 💻
No shortcuts.
No magic frameworks hiding complexity.
Just raw understanding and deliberate practice.
⚠️ The Reality Check
I know this path won’t be easy.
There will be:
- Bugs 🐞 that refuse to die
- Segmentation faults 💥 that test my patience
- Confusion 🤯 when nothing makes sense
- Restarts 🔄 when I have to relearn things the hard way
But I also know something else.
🧠 What I Truly Believe
🧱 Strong foundations beat shortcuts
🎯 Depth beats speed
🔁 Consistency beats motivation
This journey isn’t about rushing to the finish line.
It’s about discipline 📚, curiosity 🔍, and having the courage to learn things the hard way — because that’s often the right way.
📖 Learning in Public
As I move forward, I’ll be sharing:
✔️ What I learn
✔️ What I break
✔️ What I fix
✔️ And what I misunderstand before finally understanding
If you’re into low-level programming, OS development, or simply love deep tech — let’s connect 🤝 and grow together.
This is Day 1.
And every serious journey starts with one honest step. 🔥
If you’re curious — or walking a similar path — I’d love for you to read and share your thoughts and follow me on my journey.
