UsefulThings
Useful things to remember.
Explanation
This is a personal collection of helpful tools and learning resources for developers. Think of it like a developer's bookmark folder or a cheat sheet—a curated list of websites, tutorials, and command-line tips that the creator uses regularly and wants to remember.
The repo is organized by topic: git tutorials for version control, regular expression testers, lists of public APIs to build against, programming language libraries (PHP in particular), and command-line tricks for Mac. Each section points to external resources—mostly other GitHub projects, interactive tutorials, or reference websites. There's also a small section at the bottom with practical examples, like a shell command for finding files that contain specific text.
This would be useful for anyone learning to code or wanting to level up their developer skills. A beginner learning git could use the interactive tutorials to practice branching. Someone building an app might browse the public APIs list to find free data sources to integrate. A PHP developer might bookmark the design patterns link to understand how to structure their code better. Even experienced developers might find a new command-line shortcut they didn't know existed.
The README is intentionally informal and ongoing—the creator notes that suggestions are welcome and the list is "growing." It's less a polished guide and more a "things I found useful, organized in one place so I don't lose them." The value is in curation: someone has already done the legwork of finding reliable, practical resources across different developer topics.
