Shelltief’s Documentation

A structured technical knowledge base focused on understanding systems deeply with precise references, clear structure, and no copy-paste recipes.

This documentation is not a tutorial collection. It is a place to build and revisit understanding.

What you’ll find here

  • OverTheWire writeups
    Bandit, Narnia, and similar challenges — explained with context, references, and intent.

  • Programming concepts
    Explained from first principles, with pointers to authoritative sources.

Who this is for

This documentation is for learners who: - want to understand why things work, not just how - are comfortable reading and exploring on their own - prefer structure over step-by-step hand-holding

If you’re looking for quick answers to copy and move on, this may not be the right place.

Where to start
