Welcome to Linear π
Obstacle-free learning starts here.
The Philosophy π‘
We believe that knowledge shouldn't be gated, hidden, or hard to find. University life is tough enough without having to hunt down that one specific past paper or lecture note. Linear exists to remove those barriers. It's about a straight line from needing help to finding help. No detours.
