No-Nonsense C Programming (Full Video Course)

This course teaches you how I code in C - not abstract rules and no academic slop. No tutorial hell. Just practical fundamentals.

You’ll follow my exact workflow, mental models, and problem-solving approach.
After finishing it, you’ll understand all my C videos, read my code effortlessly, and write serious C programs yourself.

The goal is simple:

By the end of the course, you’ll be able to approach C projects the way I do - comfortably working with libraries, documentation, the terminal, and your own ideas.

What you’ll learn

You’ll see how everything fits together - from source code to a running program. After the first lessons, you’ll already be compiling, running, and modifying your own C programs.

This course focuses on how to think in C, not on memorizing rules.

Core concepts:

• How C code is just text transformed by the compiler into an executable
• Writing real C programs (no toy examples)
• Structuring programs as universal stdin → stdout transformers

Hands-on topics:

• Simple encryption implemented from scratch
• Low-level file reading and writing
• How C interacts with Linux under the hood

System literacy:

• Working comfortably in the terminal
• Navigating man pages
• Understanding header files and include paths
• Using system commands effectively

After this course

• You understand how I think when I write C
• You can follow all my C content without confusion
• You have clear, reusable mental models
• You can build programs instead of copying patterns

This course is for you if

• You want to really understand C
• You want to write real programs fast
• You care about how things work below the surface

No fluff.
No detours.
Just how C actually works - and how I use it.
