  • cs-topics

    My personal curriculum covering basic CS topics. This might be useful for self-taught developers... A work in development! This might take a very long time to get finished!

  • Have a look at https://teachyourselfcs.com/, in particular the Programming section. You're right that there is a lot of value in understanding how computers and computational logic work if you want to be a good programmer. However I don't think you need to master it before you learn a programming language, computer science courses will generally teach a programming language at the same time they teach the principles so that you can learn by doing while you study.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
