       | I've recently been trying to make the transition into KDB/Q
       | development and have found it quite difficult. Outside of being a
       | hermit, scouring a few related subreddits and working my way
       | through the docs, I've found it such a shift in how I usually
       | think as a developer but also quite an exciting challenge.
       | 
       | I tend to learn much better from doing as opposed to reading so I
       | setup a small project which aims to aid my learning with context
       | relevant examples and exercises and I have to say, it's made
       | learning a little easier!
       | 
       | Ultimately, I wanted to share this project with the community,
       | gather feedback from people who have much more experience than
       | me, see if people find it helpful and just generally refine it
       | based on what feedback I receive.
       | 
       | Some of the things that have been implemented are:
       | 
       | 88 lessons and 77 Exercises which cover real-world
       | examples/datasets, ranging from beginner to expert (Experts
       | please grill these exercises!)
       | 
       | Learning paths
       | 
       | Progress tracking via google auth. (Feel free to use a throwaway
       | account should you want to use this)
       | 
       | I'm not trying to sell anything here, but more hear what the
       | community has to say. Ultimately, I'm just happy that I have a
       | way I can learn what was quite daunting to me a little easier but
       | I do appreciate your time in advance should you wish to give it a
       | spin!
