Great roadmap! Appreciate how you've structured this to flow from fundamentals to practical application, with proper examples and resources at each step. Your connecting the pieces rather than just learning individual technologies is spot-on (as is your suggestion to build personal projects around topics that genuinely interest you - it's often the difference between surface learning and deep understanding). This is exactly the kind of methodical approach that builds lasting expertise. Well done David, I'm restacking this.
PS: On the orchestration front - while Airflow is the trusted industry heavyweight, I've become quite fond of Mage.ai. It might not have Airflow's years of battle scars, but it just feels more... 'today'. Worth a look if you enjoy smooth developer experiences!
