⚠️ Important note: This collection of resources is not meant to be comprehensive. Think of it as a starting point — a hub where useful tools and links are gathered and made freely accessible. If you come across any outdated material or inconsistencies, please let me know through the contact options listed here.
ℹ️ Information: For certification-related materials, take a look at the “📖 Related Resources” section or the inline references included in my “🏅 Cert Review” articles.
On this page, you’ll find a curated set of links about Microsoft products and services.
Most of these links come from certifications I’ve studied, tools I’ve been using, or work experience gathered throughout the years.
This list will keep evolving as I explore and validate new resources — so consider it a work in progress. Stay tuned! 💡
