More of web developer cheatsheet(2008)

Those cheat sheets are seriously out of date. Scriptaculous? VBScript / ASP? Um, no.

Ruby 1.8.4?!

And extremely narrow in scope, being all web centric.

And what's with the who's who of poorly designed technologies? if I had to pick a list of languages and technologies with the most annoying design deficiencies, it would be php, js, mysql, vbscript, asp. Web development still is a stinking pile of languages, but at least classic asp/vbscript and most php is gone, right?

PHP is not gone, yet; quite unfortunately.

PHP isn't even remotely gone. Between one of the largest sites in the world (Facebook) and the most popular blogging platform (Wordpress) not to mention a countless number of little (and not so little) sites, PHP is stronger than ever.

If anything, I expect PHP's arc to look more like JavaScript than Perl.

As a .net developer I am pretty happy ASP.net is doing so well. PHP however, is still king.

Needs an update for Bootstrap 3.

The ASP/VBScript one gave me a laugh. I could have used it 13 years ago.

Is the word "developer" now implicit shorthand for "web developer"?

I agree that it should have said web developer, but your sentence construct leaves the impression upon me that you consider Web developers lesser than any other type of developer.

Web or not, they are still developers.

And your comment leaves the impression that you have an inferiority complex about being a web developer. I'm pretty sure the GP was just commenting on the narrowness of the topics covered. We web developers aren't the only ones who need cheat sheets! I hope?

"The world of the Internet is quite an interesting place to be a part of!"

Too ridiculous; didn't read.

I don't code in any of those languages so no good for me.
