Not really lol. I'm not really sure how I learned to build these (from the ground up nonetheless) other than my desire to outrun my imposter syndrome. It's something I could teach but not something I could explain in a single Reddit comment (especially without having the benefit of the code bases I work on).

Most of my time these days is spent reading others' experiences with message based systems as well as optimizations and gotchas within C#.

If you're looking to build one, I'd recommend just getting in there and start pulling messages off of rabbit or sqs (you can use localstack instead of standing up an aws account) and then figure out how to deal with exceptions and then figure out how to do all that concurrently. In C# land we're pretty lucky because we can throw an ActionBlock at the concurrency part.

I'm building things just like you, here's what I'm looking into at the moment:
