It also passes along dev jobs and hackathons, including ones aimed at African developers. Its own builds show up between the reading: a Learning Tracker that reached 163 users, and c4rd.biz, a digital card that went live in August 2026.

The journey.

  1. Sep 2023 – Aug 2024

    The reading list

    The early channel reads like a study guide: GitHub repos for JavaScript learners, a free deep learning book, and advice for junior engineers. It also set readers a challenge to build a modular React calculator where every function is a plugin.

    Weekend builds

    Here the channel shares a resume generator that tailors resumes to job descriptions so they get past ATS filters. Advent of Code 2024 got a rallying post. Then EZ-Meet AI arrived, a weekend-built meeting assistant with real-time transcription and searchable archives.

    Read the full article

    A run of short summaries of engineering articles, each pointing to the full read: Python in production, faster graph learning with PyG, and the channel's own DNS explainer for new web developers. The stretch closes with a minimalist Learning Tracker for interview prep that drew 163 users.

    Puzzles and playlists

    Advent of Code is back, with the Day 8 simulation puzzle solved and shared. The channel also rounds up learning paths: a list of system design interview videos and free AI courses from ten companies, Anthropic to Hugging Face.

    c4rd.biz goes live

    After a year of holding the domain, c4rd.biz went live in August 2026 and launched on SaaS Hive. Feedback sharpened the pitch around in-person meetings: one QR code, even without internet, plus notes on who you met. By September it placed Top 3 in SaaS Hive's Launch Sprint.

In their own words.

One thing I've learned throughout my career is that the people you meet compound.
