People share cool things that they create everyday, here are some of the highlights that I have come across for you to check out too.

Tae'lur Alexis 100 days of Vanilla JS

Losing the framework or library specific demos, Tae'lur Alexis takes a look at the fundamentals of JavaScript, teaching the building blocks that everyone would benefit from knowing. I find it amazing that people are putting resources like this into the community, especially with JavaScript which is always constantly evolving. I personally am really excited to follow this series as it comes out over the next year or so, I would recommend you follow along too even if you think you are already solid on the JS front (if even just to see what other themes come along after Sailor Moon!)

VS Code Live Share

An amazing VS Code extension that allows you to give remote access to your projects remotely, within the context of their editor. Giving access to everything from the files, git commit ability, shared servers and terminal. A truly staggering bit of technology that should be part of all VS Code users toolkit.

Ladybug Podcast

This is a podcast by Emma Bostian, Kelly Vaughn and Ali Spittel - one that I have been listening to religiously over the past six months or so and have loved every episode. With a whole bunch of episodes across a range of subject matters, ranging from technical to other career and personal elements, if you haven't listened to it yet jump into the back catalogue now.

This is a new extension that I've only used a couple of times so far, but can think of so many times where I wish I had it in the past. Give it a go and give feedback too as Jonathan Carter is looking to develop it further.
