I build by attacking the undocumented parts first

Most of the interesting systems I have worked on did not have clean tutorials. Cardano staking, Ergo off-chain execution, token mining infrastructure, traceability oracles, and high-throughput blockchain indexers all had the same shape: the useful knowledge was scattered across source code, Discord threads, maintainer comments, failed examples, and whatever assumptions lived in people's heads.That turned into my operating style. I gather the fragments, reduce them into concrete questions, build the smallest prototype that can prove or disprove my understanding, and then keep tightening the loop until the system works. It is less glamorous than waiting for perfect documentation, but it is usually faster.
