you aren't alone. recently, I was constructing a small query engine based off of Prolog, a language which I have never delved into the internals of. the rewarding moments were when it worked. I didn't work off of any documentation, only by thinking how I'd design something similar. going "from scratch" is incredibly rewarding because you start realizing that some parts of your thought are based on well-trodden ground. things start to light up. I'll never get tired of that style of work.
