TLDRvia the TL;DR App

The other day I saw a tweet that said something like, “to a designer, HTML is programming and to a programmer, HTML is design.”

With technical shift changing the dimensions of the world, more and more people are getting inclined towards the coding languages.

Let’s find out from where are they learning coding and taking help daily —

1. Sublime Text —

It is a sophisticated text editor for code, markup and prose.You’ll love the slick user interface, extraordinary features and amazing performance.

This software is light in weight and helps in writing SQL, Python, Scala.

2. Atom —

Atom is a text editor that’s modern, approachable, yet hackable to the core — a tool you can customise to do anything but also use productively without ever touching a config file.

This is a tool which helps in Golang projects, and the customization can be done easily with this tool. This also helps with golang side-projects. + it’s open source, so you can customize it a lot.

3. Jupyter —

Most read Blogs and Websites —

The websites and blogs that the developers and coders of our community rely on are-

· Everybody’s friend Google.

· YouTube — Learning a new language or making a project in a new language needs a lot of visual based learning. When you start the coding process as beginner, any single misplacement in the codes can cause a lot of wastage of time. In youtube, these kinds of mistakes are completely eradicated. At the same time, the comments section, the expert of the field provide alternative ways to solve the same problem. Also, the discussion or comments reply on youtube is much faster than stackoverflow or quora because being a highly viewed video, it is always indexed at the top.

· Twitter — following tech experts helps.

· CSS tricks
