Hello there, it’s great to hear from you! I’ve been learning C, and I find myself forgetting things in C often due to the lack of opportunities to use it frequently, given my limited exposure. Are there any good novice-friendly projects or effective ways to improve my C skills?

edit: If it matters, what I eventually want to graduate into doing is fixing bugs on the linux kernel.

    this may be unrelated and super late, but what language usually compliments c for what it can’t do?

      One of C’s main painpoints is that development is slow. I work in embedded and there people usually use python or another scripting language along c, to handle tasks where performance and memory footprint os not an issue and you just want to build something, and then save c for when you really need it.
