"Did you know the average developer spends one-fifth of his life reading listicles?"
Surprised? I was too, when I made up this fact just now. ๐ But I'm sure the actual figure is somewhere in the ballpark. The point is, we all love list-based articles. And since we devs basically live on the interwebs, I'm sure all of us cross paths with at least one listicle everyday. It's just unavoidable.
But of course, we can't read every listicle we see, no matter how tempting it looks. No matter how juicy the title or how inviting the contents, there just isn't enough time! Oh, there's never enough time, my friends.
Let me just stop right there before you guys start accusing me of over-romanticizing the listicle.
So why am I writing this? Well, it's simple. This is a new series my team and I are starting on DEV.to in which we will be showcasing, at the end of every month, a huge list of resources that we find on the web. It's going to be a list of lists... an ULTRA LIST, if you will. ๐
All the awesome goodies that came out this month and are worth checking will be on this list. And the best part? The list doesn't have to end here. I want all of you to add in the comments the best resources you came across this month.
So prepare yourself!
