Let’s start with a little proficiency tip with 3 Keyboard Shortcuts I Wish I Learned Long Ago. I imagine most developers already know the one about switching between open applications (Cmd + Tab on Mac, Alt + Tab on PC), but the author has a couple variations on that!
I cannot imagine what scenario is missing from How to undo (almost) anything with Git. I assume there is at least one, I just cannot think of it…
Um, Quttons are freaking awesome… Makes me want to collect them all!! ;-)
And Gradify CSS is pretty freaking awesome too! Hard to imagine a way this could be used in production, but for a curated site, it would make for nice eye-candy!
Keeping with the awesome, the page scroll effects are über-awesome! I particularly love the Parallax option, for some reason it feels very natural to me. But even having read the article, I cannot tell what the “hijacking” option does…
I’ve been using grunticon for some time now to provide SVG support and fallbacks, but Luke Whitehouse offers a Gulp-version, and runs you through his set-up and workflow!

Man, how things have changed since I saw my first <html>
tag… :-)
And finally, a burger icon I could really sink my teeth into… :-)
Happy reading,
