Learning Resources
A carefully curated collection of books and resources for mastering DevOps engineering. Each resource has been personally selected and used in my structured, mastery-based learning curriculum.
Learning Philosophy
These resources follow a mastery-based learning approach inspired by Launch School's methodology:
- Depth over breadth - Deep understanding of fundamentals before advancing
- Conceptual mastery - Focus on "why" and "how" before "what"
- Progressive complexity - Building knowledge systematically from foundations
- Practical application - Real-world problem solving and hands-on practice
This collection represents Phase 1 foundations. Additional categories will be added as I progress through my DevOps curriculum.
