Are there any similar websites but for web development in general (not just CSS)? Because this one is amazing!

The insane amount of SEO spam articles you get whenever you look for guides/examples on Google makes it almost impossible to rely on just searching on Google when you need it. So I'm finding myself having to go back to looking for curated lists of quality websites...

I took a react class and the intro was a lot of html/css/design stuff. The CSShints site isn't just CSS, so its worth exploring.

There is a lot of good stuff published that's hard to find. I wish I had a better catch all resource page.

Codepen.io is a good playground to play around with html/css/javascript and it has some javascript frameworkstuff too.

A lot of people put together good content. It seems to surface though blogs and twitter. Some links/papers we used (without the CSShints pages). A lot of them have more content if you explore.

There used to be many blog posts by web designers showing up for inspiration - a weird mix of nerds, oriental ladies, and self-taught experts pushing the limit and genuinely in search of the one proper visual representation of some piece of content. I think people underestimate how much of what we take for granted on the web today was pioneered by these folks. sitepoint, alistapart used to be good as well (w3fools, not so much).
