Mishaal is documenting the climb from figuring things out to shipping useful tools. The channel moves between Arch Linux experiments, red-team learning, and practical builds such as a clock PWA and git-dr-mirror, a GitHub-to-GitLab backup tool.

How they work

Mishaal learns by doing: installing and customizing Arch, working through cybersecurity labs, practicing red teaming and reverse engineering, and turning useful ideas into small tools. They are also trying to focus on one task at a time and now keep a weekly log on their website.
