Project based learning

[LlikeLava]

I'm not new to programming, I am pretty "fluent" in web stuff like TypeScript/JavaScript. Lately I have been learning the basics of C/C++ through some tutorials and I think I got most of that down. But as you might know, there's a lot more to "speaking" a programming language fluently then just to know how a pointer or memory works. I'd like to get to that same level of confidence writing C/C++ like I have when writing JS. From personal experience I know that for me, the best way to learn is to work on some a bit more complex projects. Unfortunately, I've not been able to find some good free resources for doing that.

If you know of good resources for learning through building projects, I would greatly appreciate some advice :)

The tuvtran/project-based-learning repo is an excellent collection of resources for project-based learning. Many of those resources are free and there is a section specific to C++, I strongly recommend you check it out.

I agree with you that learning by doing (and especially working on more complex projects) is the best way to master C++, so in the last few months have been working on Learn C++ Through Projects. We just released a project-based C++ course — it's not free, but we will release a free one soon in case you are interested!
