How this library works

Written to be followed, not skimmed

Every guide here is a procedure someone actually ran, with the steps, the time it takes and the places it goes wrong.

HOW THESE ARE WRITTEN

Numbered steps, not prose

Each guide breaks into steps with their own anchor, so you can send a colleague straight to step four. Those anchors are minted once and never move.

Levels you can read without colour

Beginner to Expert, shown as filled pips as well as a label, so the level survives a screenshot, a colourblind reader and a printout.

An honest time estimate

The minutes on each card are the sum of its steps, not a reading speed. Guides without an estimate sort last rather than first — an unknown length is not a short one.

Freshness that means something

“Updated” moves only when a person changed the content — never when someone read it. Sorting evergreen guides any other way ranks whatever was most recently opened.

Filters that admit when they are empty

Every count is measured with your other filters applied, so the number beside an option is what you will actually get. Options that cannot narrow anything are not offered.

Prerequisites up front

What you need before you start, and what you will be able to do at the end, are stated before the first step — not discovered halfway through.
