  5. Raising the Level of Abstraction
    Deterministic Code Generation for C++
    Mark E. Wilson

    Most code generation is about saving time.This book is about eliminating entire categories of errors.Instead of writing code first, you define the system—its data, its flow, and its structure—and generate the implementation deterministically. No hidden behavior. No runtime frameworks. No guesswork.If you care about building systems that remain understandable years later, this approach changes how you think about software.

  6. Daily C++ Interview
    Prepare yourself for your next interview one question a day
    Sandor Dargo

    This book helps you prepare for your next C++ interview if you are looking for an entry- or intermediate level position. The questions are mostly not about edge cases and brain teasers but they cover the realistic knowledge you need to get a developer job in the C++ world.

  8. Build Your Own Redis with C/C++
    Network programming, data structures, and low-level C.
    build-your-own.org

    Build real-world software by coding a Redis server from scratch.Network programming. The next level of programming is programming for multiple machines. Think HTTP servers, RPCs, databases, distributed systems.Data structures. Redis is the best example of applying data structures to real-world problems. Why stop at theoretical, textbook-level knowledge when you can learn from production software?Low-level C. C was, is, and will be widely used for systems programming and infrastructure software. It’s a gateway to many low-level projects.From scratch. A quote from Richard Feynman: “What I cannot create, I do not understand”. You should test your learning with real-world projects!
