epogrebnyak / education-material

An organizational meta-repo with pointers to all of the myriad educational materials available today (in any form)

In teaching someone about COM programming, it would be nice if I could just teach them how to use the Visual Studio wizards and all the code generation features, but if anything goes wrong, they will not have the vaguest idea what happened or how to debug it and recover from it . I’m going to have to teach them all about IUnknown and CLSIDs and ProgIDS and … oh, the humanity!
