C and C++

Learn how to design embedded systems the sane way: on your Linux host, with modern C++, predictable timing, clean interfaces, and no unnecessary complexity.

A hands-on introduction to IPC in real-time 3D Applications using modern C++, gRPC, and OpenUSD, featuring a practical LiveLink pipeline between Autodesk Maya and a custom USD viewer.

This reference volume consists of revised, edited, cross-referenced, and thematically organized articles from the Software Diagnostics and Observability Institute and the Software Diagnostics Library (former Crash Dump Analysis blog) about software diagnostics, root cause analysis, debugging, crash and hang dump analysis, and software trace and log analysis written from 15 April 2024 to 14 November 2025.

In this book, you'll see that the book is designed with one main idea. It aims to give you the skills, confidence and understanding you need to build and deliver real Backend systems. Each chapter is designed to teach you everything you need to know to get hands-on with writing, configuring, deploying and troubleshooting your own projects. Right at the start, we got stuck into designing APIs and building backend systems. We didn't just stick to the basics, though. We went beyond that pretty quickly and started using modern protocols like gRPC and the key contract-first methods that are now the norm for scalable backend systems.

Most embedded teams say they “avoid OOP” and “stick to C.” But look closely at real C codebases and you’ll find function-pointer tables, opaque handles, and generic device arrays—manual object models built the hard way. Beyond Blinky shows how to embrace that reality consciously, using modern C++ to design firmware that is readable, portable, and owned—without sacrificing performance or control. This book is about moving past the blinking LED mindset and designing embedded systems as living architectures, not scripts. To blinky and beyond—Let's make your IO sing!

This isn't a book to put on a shelf. It's meant to be used, tested, and adapted as you build your networking skills. In this new edition, I've been working on making the teaching flow better and making technical stuff clearer without overwhelming you. You'll get the basics down, like how C++ works well with TCP/IP and how sockets are the foundation for communication. Then, I'll show you how to build real client-server apps, set up IP addressing, and use protocols like HTTP, FTP, SMTP, IMAP, and DNS directly through C++ code. Each example is practical and you can actually implement it. It shows you not just how something works, but why it matters in real networking scenarios.

Unlock the world of programming with a step-by-step guide designed to turn confusion into clarity. Whether you’re just starting out or looking to strengthen your coding foundation, this book walks you through programming concepts with clear explanations, practical examples, and fully worked solutions.Instead of overwhelming theory, you’ll find structured lessons that focus on problem-solving, critical thinking, and creativity. Every solution is more than just an answer - it’s a tool you can adapt, experiment with, and reshape to fit your own coding journey. From your very first “Hello, World!” to tackling more complex challenges, you’ll gain the confidence to write, debug, and understand code with purpose. Perfect for students and self-learners alike, this book is your reliable companion through the maze of programming - helping you not just learn to code, but to think like a programmer.

Guarantees are a tool to help you write good code. They make critical assumptions explicit and obvious in a way that you and anyone reading your code can guarantee the code works.

Stop guessing what the bytes on disk mean and build the filesystem yourself. Over twelve chapters you implement FAT12 from scratch in C, from the first sector read to formatting a fresh volume, and check every step against a hexdump. Then you boot the exact same code inside your own kernel and watch it write and read files on bare metal.

This training course is a reformatted, improved, modernized, and remastered full-color version of the previous x64 Windows Debugging: Practical Foundations book with additional material.
