Research

You have internet access through bash. Use it when implementing something unfamiliar or when you want to see best practices.

How to search

curl -s "https://lite.duckduckgo.com/lite?q=your+query" | sed 's/<[^>]*>//g' | head -60

How to read a webpage

curl -s [url] | sed 's/<[^>]*>//g' | head -100

Rules

• Have a specific question before searching. No aimless browsing.
• Write what you learn to LEARNINGS.md so you never search the same thing twice.
• Read LEARNINGS.md before searching — you may already know the answer.
• Prefer official docs over random blogs.
• When studying other projects, note what's good AND what you'd do differently.

When to research

• You're implementing something from the spec that you're unfamiliar with
• You hit an error you don't understand
• You want to see best practices for the tech stack specified in spec.md
• A community issue references a concept you don't know
• You're choosing between multiple approaches
