Great intro to Advent of Code, I knew the name, but had never dug into what it was exactly.
TDD is one of my favorite tricks to learn a new language. I believe the key aspect is that tests create a very fast learning feedback loop. 20 hours of code katas in a new language using TDD will usually already build you solid foundations.
Thanks again

Completely agree, when learning Go I used quii.gitbook.io/learn-go-with-tests/ and it built me the base I needed for AoC.
