Getting Started with Modern Web Development

modernweb.com

It seems like there is a good amount of posts hitting the front page lately that are simply collections of tutorials, libraries, or other references without much substance.

I'd love to read about some in-depth experiences with said tutorials and libraries, why some options might be better than others, or the tradeoffs made amongst them.

The site has consisted of straight-forward tutorials to date. That will slowly evolve and change over time.

Thanks for the suggestions!

Wouldn't it have been better to not post it until you had more to offer?

The site has been up for a year and a half. It used to be called "Flippin' Awesome" so we are just keeping pace with the current editorial pattern.

We'll be re-launching soon and you'll see a more marked change then.

is that a yes?

That's a "no" because it's important to keep up with the current reader base and slowly change it over time, rather then make a massive change at once.

We chose to iterate slowly instead of a "bet the farm" launch. Agile vs. Waterfall.
