Helpful Tech Resources

Disclaimer: Please don't get stuck in 'tutorial hell'. Try to execute what you learned in a project or task of your own and then move on to the next interesting thing.

Over the last few months I spent a lot of time on social media, collecting all kinds of interesting, educational, and helpful resources. It was nearing the 100 links so I thought I would share them with the world, so here you go :)

Feel free to contact me on:
Twitter Instagram

Also don't forget to give this repository a star ⭐ if you like it to keep up with changes. Use these resources yourself or share them with people that it could be helpful to. Thank you!
