# Reverse Engineering of crackmes with Ghidra

## === About === ##
A collection of random crackme and programming puzzle solutions created using **GHIDRA** SRE (Software Reverse Engineering) tool. This series of tutorials is for **complete beginners** in Assembly language (x86) and software reverse engineering (like me, lol). I created this repository because I wanted to share my solutions and approach, so anyone can learn something from it, and because I need practicing in both C/C++, ASM and Reverse Engineering.
* How to create a project in Ghidra #1: read [this short tutorial](https://github.com/QuantumWizard888/Reverse-Engineering-crackmes-with-Ghidra/blob/main/Import_and_create_project_tutorial.md)
* How to create a project in Ghidra #2: or you can just watch [this great tutorial](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fTGTnrgjuGA)
