Welcome to LearnForge, a developer-focused learning platform for documenting the journey of learning, building, and creating.
LearnForge brings structured learning notes, technical blogs, real-world projects, useful resources, and personal learning experiences together in one open knowledge platform. The goal is simple: turn concepts into practical work and share the journey as it happens.
Learning becomes more useful when it is connected to something you can build. LearnForge is designed to make that process visible and reusable through:
✅ Course-wise learning notes
✅ Topic-level explanations written from practical experience
✅ Technical blogs and experiences from the learning journey
✅ Real-world projects that turn theory into practice
✅ Curated resources for continued learning
✅ An open record of progress, experiments, and lessons learned
| Section | Description |

| 📚 Learning | Structured notes organized by course, chapter, and topic |
| ✍️ Blogs | Technical writing and experiences from the learning journey |
| 🛠️ Projects | Practical projects built while learning new concepts |
| 🔗 Resources | Useful tools, references, and learning material |
| Layer | Technology |
|---|---|
| Frontend | Next.js, React, TypeScript |
| Styling | TailwindCSS |
| Icons | React Icons |
| Backend | Node.js, NestJS |
| Database | PostgreSQL |
| Database plugin | Sequelize |

pnpm nx graphLearnForge uses Husky to keep changes checked before they are shared:
- Pre-commit: When you commit it will run oxlint for all your affected changes in each app and it is faster than eslint.
- Pre-push: When you push in your branch then it runs typecheck and build on your affected changes in each app using typescript stable version ( using golang ) for faster compilation of typescript.
The hooks are installed automatically through the root prepare script after pnpm install.
Contributions, ideas, corrections, and learning notes, write your blogs are welcome.
- Fork the repository.
- Create a feature or hotfix branch:
git switch -c feature/my-feature. - Make and verify your changes.
- Commit your changes:
git commit -m "Describe the change". - Push the branch:
git push origin feature/my-feature. - Open a pull request.
LearnForge is an evolving platform. New chapters, topics, projects, and notes will be added as the learning journey continues.
