Learning through doing? (yet another usb hub)

Hiya!

I am planning to get a framework laptop in the near future, so I’m interested in trying to make my own multi-dongle hider, similar to the current ones made by josh_cook, leodj etc using a usb hub and fitting it inside one of the expansion bays.

Hopefully its not against the rules, would anyone be able to recommend me a discord/place where i could ask questions and get responses fairly quickly, or even books or something that would introduce me to useful info/general guidelines etc.

Thanks!
