- Official Documentation
- Linux resources
- GitHub documentation
- AWS learning resources
- Docker documentation
- Kubernetes documentation
- Hands-on labs
- Personal projects
- Started my structured DevOps learning journey.
- Started learning Python with Harvard CS50P.
- Created this repository to document my progress.
- Started organizing Python concepts topic-wise.
- Began building a practical GitHub learning record.
This section will be updated as I complete major milestones.
Don't just learn the tool. Understand the problem it solves.
Don't just watch tutorials. Build something.
Don't just build something. Document it.
Don't just document it. Understand it well enough to explain it.
