Ask HN: Building a framework/library for education purposes. How best to do it?
If I wanted to develop a deeper understanding of web technologies by building a framework or library, what is the best way to do it?
Or, skip the framework and just build the application: if purpose is learning it's probably a better way to go, since it's a more direct use case.
Understanding does not require completion or utility. It just requires research. Some experiments fail. That does not mean nothing is learned.
Good luck.
