Resource Roundup

[BekahHW]

With an active and growing community like ours, we get a lot of folks asking for resources to learn different things. Let's start collecting resources we personally have used and approve of or know from a reliable source/sources that it's a good resource so we can create a VC Recommended Resource Guide.

If you can, please use this format:

Tech Category - specific language

Resource Title - type of resource and author - short description or main topic - COST: (if applicable)

For example:

Frontend - React/Gatsby

Accessibility in JavaScript Applications - Frontend Masters Course - Marcy Sutton - We can produce innovative and inclusive JavaScript-powered web apps! This course will teach you to remove barriers to access that might prevent people with disabilities from using a modern JavaScript web application. We’ll study accessibility in UI components, primarily with React and Gatsby.js, but with knowledge applicable to all JavaScript-heavy web stacks. Debug your sites for accessibility, manage keyboard focus, announce live updates to the page to screen readers, and use manual and automated testing to gain web accessibility superpowers! - COST: Frontend Masters Subscription at $39/month with options for yearly and team.
