Portfolio Direction

  1. Immediate Application:

    • Convert comparisons + loops + lists into rule-driven log parsing prototypes.
    • Use functions/scope/testing patterns for safer utility design.
  2. Security Mapping Continuation:

    • Keep chapter-level OWASP mapping current.
    • Add ASVS references as backend/API chapters begin.
  3. Daily Sync Hygiene:

    • Keep commits small and concept-scoped.
    • Reflect only real active days and real work.

Notes

  • Detailed chapter notes and normalized lesson summaries are maintained under chapters/ and notes/.
