Hi, I’m Abu Hanzla 👋

What This Space Is
This isn’t just documentation. This is my real-time learning journey. Here you’ll find:- What I’ve Learned - Concepts, patterns, and insights from real projects and problem-solving
- What I’m Currently Learning - Work-in-progress notes on new technologies and approaches
- Project Breakdowns - Not just the final product, but the thinking and decisions behind it
- Problem-Solving Approaches - How I tackle DSA, system design, and real-world challenges
- Mistakes & Lessons - What didn’t work and why, because learning includes failing
- Future Version Guidance - My notes today for my future self (and anyone else benefiting from the journey)
