What's one resource most devs don't know that you use regularly?

I use https://coolors.co/ almost every week to find nice color combinations for my projects.

What are some of your go-to resources for anything dev related?

regex101.com is a life saver for crafting regular expressions.

[Blake Lindsay]

Along with debuggex.com for visualizing an expression.

[Dylan Anthony]

That’s another good one for sure.

[Martin Becker]

I'd recommend rubular for ruby style regex.

[Ross Henderson]

Only reason I use regex in any form is because this site exists.

[protium]

It seems to be better than regexr.com/. Thanks!

[Nathan Englert]

Absolutely this 👆

[Christopher Kade]

This is definitely going in my bookmarks, thanks !

[Florian Rand]

Directly to bookmarks too!

[Jarod Peachey]

I use that all the time! Love it.

[Valentin D.]

ngrok.com/ or serveo.net/ so I can expose my local servers to everyone and share my work without having to push to staging environment !

[Christopher Kade]

I LOVE ngrok, it has been super useful over the last few months 😄 thanks for sharing Valentin !

[Mikael]

eeeuh yes, that's amazing!

I can't tell unless I could literally mind-read what most other devs think!

Personally, I read reddit (programming sub), quora, HN, FreeCodeCamp, medium, and dev.to, of course. All of them are quite popular so I'm assuming most other devs might be using them too. There are some other quiz, coding contest and pure fun sites too, and some of them are a little less known I believe:

1. open.kattis.com/
2. app.codility.com/programmers/chall...
3. hackerrank.com/dashboard
4. techgig.com/home
5. mathsisfun.com/
6. codechef.com/
7. pyschools.com/quiz/view_ranking
8. codingbat.com/
9. codewars.com/dashboard
10. mathblog.dk/programming-challenges/

colorbox.io is an amazing tool for working with colors too.

Fontspark.app is also a very nice tool for types discovering.

Coolors.co is amazing for creating color palettes fast.

[Christopher Kade]

Love it, I'll use Fontspark a lot from now on 😄

[Florian Rand]

I discovered fontspark.app because I was planning to do something similar, is so good that it changed my mind about going on with the project.

css-tricks.com/snippets/css/a-guid... - I always forget justify-content!

whynopadlock.com/ - This is also great for debugging why your padlock isn't green.

[Christopher Kade]

I've opened this CSS Tricks guide more times than I can remember 😅

[𝐍𝐚𝐭𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐞 𝐝𝐞 𝐖𝐞𝐞𝐫𝐝]

So glad I'm not the only one! Haha.

[Milan Radojević]

Haha same here, and three grid one also!

[Desi]

justify-content will be the death of my last remaining brain cel

I’m not even going to correct that, that’s what CSS has done to me today

[Michel]

Oups! I wish I known whynopadlock a month ago...

[cbloss]

I have that same CSS Tricks article saved too!! It's been a life saver.

[Akashdeep Singh]

OneTab is a great Chrome and Firefox extension for tab-hoarders.

[Narshim]

Awesome tip

[Julian]

that's what i needed just now, thanks!

[Angad Singh]

This collection of cheatsheets is great if you want to do something with a tool/library but don't know what it's called! Just reading through the cheatsheets whenever you're free for a few minutes is also incredibly helpful.

[David Wickes]

man

[stereobooster]

tldr.ostera.io/

[Thomas C. Haflich]

relatedwords.org/
thesaurus.com/

I... have some trouble naming things.

[Vinicius Stock]

CrontabGuru is great for verifying or building cron expressions.
