    I particularly like the iterated development approach to teaching on this site. That is, one starts with some minimal working code, states a goal, and then modifies the code to accomplish that goal --- repeatedly.

    This is a very powerful way to go through a codebase (when it is possible).

    Anyone knows of similar projects in another languages? I've been wanting to understand some important tools (like git in this case) and also learn some languages I've been pushing back. Would love to find more of these

    Wow, that is a beautiful interface. I mean the website itself. How is it made?

    Never seen a writing style like that. How is it called? I want to read some documentation and history.

    There isn't a table of contents for the website? I haven't been able to find one.
