A fun way to do this (IMO) is to pick some really simple classic game, and remake it. Something like Minesweeper, but pick something that’s at least sort of related to the concepts you want to learn.
This is a fantastic approach.
I wanted to learn web-dev so I built a blog and a web hostable 5e character generator. Ended up learning authentication, HTTP stuff, database management, and learned CSS and HTML to handle the frontend (backend is Python).
They’re not production ready, there’s not even a proper server built in, just a basic wsgi dev server, but I’m proud of it and it taught me a ton!
I did the same! Wanted to learn golang, so I built a blog. Kept it simple and used other tech I knew already for the css and backend. Didn’t even enable uploads. This way, I learned go much faster than if I had learned it from scratch. The basics are good. But we’re not trying to be experts. We’re trying to have fun and build stuff.
Same with rust. Wanted to build a “simple” CRUD and then spent my time reducing scope to the most basic “making a parser that converts text files into valid HTML”
Making a parser is basic? Good on you!
I mean, given there are no checks and that what I am doing is first line blogpost title, then “for each line a paragraph”, it was something cobbled pretty quick (with a large amount of unwraps).
Heh. If it works!
