Ask HN: Codebases and writeups that beginner programmers can learn from?

2 pointsby ggr2342over 1 year ago
Peter Norvig's pytudes is a great example of what I am talking about. Are there other such code repositories or similar things in any language that one can learn from?

It might depend on how individuals learn but I have a different suggestion: I'd consider a slightly different approach now, instead of looking at sets of premade examples (of which several will not feel relevant at all). Ask an LLM (ChatGPT, Claude) for how it would generate an app of a certain type in so-and-so language. Try to run it, fail, and then fix bits as you go. This should force you to look into various aspects and learn from those.
