Understanding Codebases In Minutes, NOT Hours

Описание: Learn a systematic approach to understand any codebase in minutes—no matter the language.

In this live coding session, we walk through the OpenAI Codex CLI (a real Rust project) and decode it step by step. Here's the twist: I have zero Rust experience. That's intentional—because the techniques you'll learn work across Python, Go, Rust, JavaScript, or any language.

Master these skills in this video:

• How to identify entry points and key architectural patterns
• Techniques for mapping code structure and understanding data flow
• Strategies for asking the right questions when exploring unfamiliar territory
• Practical shortcuts that work across any language or framework

Perfect for:
Onboarding to new teams or codebases
Code reviews and evaluating open-source projects
Debugging in unfamiliar languages or frameworks
Building mental models fast

No prerequisites required—whether you're junior or senior, these are transferable skills that pay off immediately.
