Do you actually understand WHY different programming languages exist and, what makes each one useful…?

Day 14 of #ZeroToOne 🚀

I think I’ve reached the point where I understand enough Rust to stop just “learning the language” and start building real systems.

Next phase: understanding how computers actually talk.

No frameworks.
No Express.
No abstractions.
Just raw bytes, sockets, protocols, and the fundamentals behind every web server we use today.
Time to go deeper.

Week one is completed!! 😎

I should practice speaking in front of a camera more often😭

Next week goal is to build a CLI tool with RUST! 🦀

Stay tuned! 🔥

I think one of the biggest struggles we have as devs (at least for me) is we’ve never deeply experienced the type of product we’re trying to build.

If you’re building a transport app like Uber, spend time studying how Uber works. If you’re building a writing app, spend time exploring how great writing platforms feel. If you’re building a bidding platform, spend time using bidding platforms (no bidding tho).

Notice the tiny things like how onboarding works, how trust is built, how errors are handled, how users are guided, why some flows feel smooth while others feel frustrating.

A developer’s free time shouldn’t only be spent learning new coding tools.

It is always these two in this community😄
