Favourite tools/services to pair with web development

Question

First question on SoloLearn!

We all got our go-to services. (And this could be anything) Always find myself using Bootstrap, WOW.js, and swiper.js libraries. Always seem to recommend Mailchimp. Love using coolors.co for finding colour schemes. Underscores.me for quick wordpress templates.

What are some of the things you guys use to help your web development?! (Could be literally anything!)

Thanks!

Answer 1

Tools:
SubLime Text (fav editor)
WebMatrix (another editor, auto hex color lookup + other tools included)
FileZila (FTP)
Tutty / Putty (SSH client to log into my linux server)

Libraries/Frameworks/etc..:
DataTables (cool table system - https://datatables.net/ )
jQuery / ReactJS / AngularJS / Bootstrap / jQueryUI
NodeJS / NoSQL (my pref over PHP/SQL)
(Beyond that, I usually create whatever I need myself and reuse it in other projects.)

Servers:
https://www.linode.com/
https://aws.amazon.com/

Answer 2

Yeah, it's pretty useful for those needs.

https://jqueryui.com/

^That's also useful if you don't already use it. Sorry, I never sat and listed out everything I've used before, so I'm just naming stuff off the dome. lol I'll look through my stuff shortly and post up more if I come across anything else.

Answer 3

Oh yeah, how could I forget:

https://www.phpmyadmin.net/

^If you use PHP, that's a must in my opinion. Makes dealing with your database insanely easier.

Last, but not least, bookmark www.StackOverflow.com - it's an amazing resource that you can use if you ever run into problems with almost anything. I used it a lot during my learning and a lot during my professional career; it's definitely a priceless resource that's free. Just note that they have really strict guidelines for posting, so learn their rules and abide by them, it'll be a priceless resource for you also.
