Some highlights: * Start with a bug, so you have a meaningful goal to guide your exploration. * Struggling at step one: setting up the build environment? Improve the process, then document for the next dev. * It’s OK to not know all the things. Start by treating each library as a black box. Wait to learn it until you need to.
