Self-taught sweng here. (And late self-taught -- didn't really start learning programming until age 21.) Early in my first job, I was asked to design a simple query language and create an interpreter for it. I had absolutely no idea what was involved in interpreters.

I found your book online (it was less complete back then -- this was 2017), and in 3 or 4 days I had a working prototype. In another week or two, I had a working product. Thank you so much for creating this resource -- learning from it and leveraging it gave me a huge confidence boost, and was super interesting and fun. One of the very best resources I've come across. I still reference that project as one of my very favorite I've ever worked on. Best wishes
