Description
Practice low-level programming with c++ for systems, games, or performance-critical apps.
Benefits
Powerful, performant, and widely used in game engines and OS dev.
Example
Eli dove into C++ while tinkering with game development. He wanted to understand how engines worked under the hood, so he started building small command-line games. It was rough β segfaults, memory management, weird compiler errors β but he loved the control and performance. Eventually, he wrote his own basic game engine loop. It didnβt win awards, but it taught him how much power (and responsibility) comes with low-level code.
