Self-Directed Learning Material
summary
Clear claims and concrete artifacts matter: collaborative material uses lightweight tools like github pages and simple markdown so contributors actually edit, live system images and step-by-step setup combat dependency hell, and a taught example — the slideshow example — deliberately avoids real-world best-practices to focus on loops. One exercise forces learners to copy-paste three times then change twelve numbers so the payoff of a loop becomes obvious (three-rectangles exercise), and translations must preserve source text and markup (backtick errors broke builds).
