## What it is
A comprehensive, multi-month self-study curriculum covering computer science fundamentals, data structures, and algorithms to prepare for software engineering interviews at major tech companies. It is a curated list of topics, links, and study advice rather than runnable software.

## Use cases
- prepare for a coding interview at google or amazon
- learn data structures and algorithms from scratch
- find a computer science study plan for self-taught engineers
- review topics before a technical phone screen
- become a software engineer without a cs degree
- plan a multi-month study schedule for interview prep

## When to choose
- you need a structured, long-term study plan for big tech interviews
- you are self-taught and want a computer science fundamentals roadmap
- you want free, community-vetted links to learning materials

## When to avoid
- you need interactive coding practice or a judge platform rather than a reading list
- you want a quick crash course the night before an interview
- you need a library or tool rather than educational content

## Facets
- artifact type: learning-resource
- maturity: stable
- function: developer-tools
- domain: education, developer-tools, tutorials
- platform: cross-platform
- tags: interview-preparation, study-plan, data-structures, computer-science, curriculum, career, algorithms
