There is a lot of great stuff on the internet for developers but when it comes to sticking to the one, we kinda get confused. Believe me, I have been there, I have searched the internet for hours. But what if I told you, you could get all the resources in just one place (I mean learning resources, it’s not a magic lamp), GitHub. Everyone who thinks Github is just to share code, well you’re about to be introduced to the whole new world.

The repositories that will be listed are not just going to help you learn new technologies, they will even help in building your own start-ups. Alright! we get it, Github is great, but where are these repositories? Well, here they are-

1 Coding Interview University

If you want to get hired as a Software Developer in big companies like Google, Netflix, Amazon, etc. then you so need this one. This repo contains everything you need to know to work for such huge companies (it probably has more than what you need!). The best thing about this repo is that it not only compiles all the necessary resources, but it also guides us on how we should be preparing for interviews, things we don’t need to know. Also one other thing, it’s fun.

2 Clone Wars

Ever thought about how Netflix is made, or YouTube? Clone-Wars is a repository that consists of open-source alternatives to popular applications such as Whatsapp, Amazon, Spotify, etc. I’m not talking about just clones, these are full-stack and operational alternatives. The cool thing about this repo is that you can check out the source code of these applications, their tech stack, and even tutorials on how they are made. It has 100+ clones of popular sites.

3 RedWood

A lot of people want to build their own tech companies or a start-up but don’t know where to start. There is a huge list of tech stacks that can be used to achieve the same thing, but which one is the right one? That’s where RedWood comes into play. It’s a full-stack web application framework that can help you build fully functional applications ready to be deployed.

Redwood uses some of the best modern technologies React, GraphQL, Babel, Jest, and Webpack to name a few. It gives you everything you need to build your start-up in one place.

4 GameDev Resources

We all agree game development is not a child’s play and when you add the struggle of searching on the web, the perfect image or audio, it quickly turns into a nightmare. GameDev Resources gives you a huge list of things you need to make your game look professional. It has 2D and 3D assets, audio files, code snippets, monetization, marketing techniques and so much more to take your game to the next level.

5 90DaysofDevOps

DevOps is huge! As a developer, I know how confusing it is to get your feet wet in the world of DevOps. But luckily 90DaysofDevOps is a repository that will give a brief idea of what DevOps is and why this technique is used by so many big companies. It will give you the foundational knowledge you need to step into the world of professionals. This repo is beginner-friendly and covers the basic technologies that are being used in DevOps.
