Study Tracks

A study track is an ordered checklist through this repo for one goal: an interview loop or a certification exam. Each item points at a specific file or section. Tick it when you can explain it out loud without notes, not when you have merely scrolled past it.

How progress is tracked

On the website, every checkbox is clickable and remembered in your browser (local storage, nothing is sent anywhere). Each track page shows an overall bar plus one bar per domain, and the home page shows a bar per track and per topic area. Pages you scroll most of the way through are also marked as read, so you can see what you have already seen.

On GitHub, fork the repo and tick the boxes in your fork (- [ ] → - [x]).

Tip

Exam blueprints change. Each certification track carries a Last verified date; check the official outline before you book, and tick an item only when you could teach it.
