🧭 Galhoom Study Method — Global Template

This repository holds the shared blueprint used by every study repo in galhoom-study-method.

One file drives the method:

📄 template.md

It defines Lectures → Interview Questions → Final Project, naming rules, tutor/student roles, living-repo updates, series-without-overlap, and the AI prompt to generate a new subject repo.

🎯 Why this repo exists

Without a global template	With this repo
Each study repo drifts into its own rules	One official method for PHP, OOP, OOD, Laravel, …
Hard to remember which copy is newest	This repo is the source of truth
New subjects start from memory	New subjects start by copying template.md

🔄 Sync rule (mandatory)

Improve the method in any study repo
        │
        ▼
1. Update template.md HERE first (study-template)
        │
        ▼
2. Copy the same change into every active study repo's template.md
   (and .cursor/rules/template-sync.mdc when Section 18 changes)
        │
        ▼
3. Bump "Template last synced" date in this file to today

Never leave a study repo’s template.md newer than this one without pushing the change back here.

When you only change subject content (lectures, questions, project) — do not touch this repo.

When you change structure, conventions, or method — update this repo in the same change.

🚀 How to create a new study repo

1. Create an empty public repo under galhoom-study-method (for example php-ood).
2. Copy template.md into the new repo root.
3. Copy .cursor/rules/template-sync.mdc from Section 18 of template.md (or from an existing study repo).
4. Fill the placeholders in Section 2 of template.md for the new subject.
5. Paste the AI prompt from Section 17 into a new chat, attach template.md, and generate the scaffold.
6. Add the new repo to the Learning Series table on the org homepage.
7. Link Comes after / Leads to to the neighboring repos — no repeated lessons.

📦 Study repos that use this template

Repo	Role
php-fundamentals	Series 1 — core PHP
php-oop	Series 2 — OOP
php-ood	Series 3 — planned

Each of those keeps its own copy of template.md so the repo stays self-contained for learners and AI tutors. This repo is where the shared method is maintained.
