## What it is
A curated collection of notes, tutorials, and resources for learning web application penetration testing and bug bounty hunting. It covers a phased curriculum from web fundamentals through OWASP Top 10 exploitation, session management, authentication attacks, and business logic vulnerabilities.

## Use cases
- learn web application penetration testing from scratch
- prepare for bug bounty hunting
- study OWASP Top 10 vulnerabilities with practical examples
- find tutorials and tools for ethical hacking
- set up a web security testing lab with Burp Suite and bWAPP
- reference methodologies for IDOR, XSS, and injection attacks

## When to choose
- you want a structured, phase-by-phase learning path for web pentesting
- you need curated links to videos, tools, and resources for bug bounty prep
- you are a beginner building foundational web security knowledge

## When to avoid
- you need an automated scanning or exploitation tool rather than learning material
- you require formal certification courseware or hands-on labs with grading
- you need mobile, network, or cloud penetration testing coverage

## Facets
- artifact type: learning-resource
- maturity: active
- function: penetration-testing, security, developer-tools
- domain: security, penetration-testing, tutorials, awesome-lists
- platform: cross-platform
- tags: bug-bounty, web-security, owasp-top-10, ethical-hacking, curated-notes, vulnerability-exploitation
