An OS, a compiler, any complete application. Or at least significant parts of it. And I mean programming from A to Z: defining, detailing, implementing, verifying, documenting.
I’ve wrote my first pre-emptive multitasking OS as a teenager. I also wrote my first compiler back then. I’ve worked on everything from industrial controllers to a Cray YMP. And I’ve forgotten more programming languages than most hacker kids can list. I consider myself as a seasoned programmer.
“Code was never the hard part” is probably made up by someone who never had to program anything serious.
Define “serious”.

Right, you’re a little more than a seasoned programmer, buddy. You are extraordinary.
You can’t expect “an operating system” or “a compiler” to be the bar for “doing anything ‘serious’” 😂
