What's up everybody, we have some insane content for ya this week.

Additionally some top secret updates on my upcoming data structures and algorithms course.

1 Hour API Design Crash Course

​

In this video I give you everything you need to start understanding APIs. We discuss the different types and how to get started with REST APIs. One of my fav videos so far, I think the world agrees:

The best part? This is the start of a completely free series on APIs and backend engineering, here is a follow up video on API response status codes:

Life Updates

I moved offices (probably way too many times now), and just finished painting my background wall. I've never done black-on-black with the chalkboard, but I think it looks pretty slick.

This will be the new background for upcoming lessons :)

This is what it looked like before:

I've been working overtime to get a consistent stream of YouTube content and produce material for the CodeBreakthrough course collection.

I'm working through the intermediate+advanced fundamentals videos as well as AI for those of you who purchased the early access. I actually recorded 29 course videos over the last week, but then I realized I recorded 4 with my microphone turned off, so only 25.

🤡

This made me want to quit or take a long break. They were very difficult videos I spent a full afternoon on. But then I realized that this is what sets apart those who succeed and those who quit: pushing through when things get challenging.

Course Updates - Upcoming DSA Course?

The next two weeks I am staying locked in. I am focused on powering through all of the intermediate and advanced fundamental material. Making it as great and as powerful as I possibly can. You should expect to see those out way sooner than initially advertised (a few weeks instead of 1-4 months).

Why so focused? Because I want to open a data structures and algorithms + system design course.

This has been on my radar for so long, and having this fundamentals course complete will be a huge motivator for me. I hope to make this new course early access available in September, so stay tuned!

This is something I've been working on behind the scenes for a long time.

Here is an early preview of some of the topics I'm considering:

This will give you the full computer science background related to DSA as well as help you apply it for technical interviewing.

What's Next?

A quick recap:

1. Consistent stream of free YouTube videos
2. Accelerated course content
3. New freaking awesome course topics

What more could you want? 😉
