I launched this newsletter in March 2024 with one goal: to make complex DSA and System Design topics simple and accessible.

Ten months, 57 articles, and 3.5 million+ views later, this newsletter has grown to a community of 60,000 subscribers — all thanks to your incredible support!

Over the past 10 months, I’ve consistently published at least one article every week.

Along the way, I’ve received a lot of requests and feedback. One thing became clear: many readers want more in-depth explanations, higher-quality resources, coverage of advanced topics and more support.

As a result, I’ve decided to devote more time and energy to this newsletter to deliver even greater value.

Since most of what I write is highly relevant to software engineers, you can probably use your company’s learning budget to cover the subscription cost. You can find an expense template here.
