The introduction to Reactive Programming you've been missing

Sass/Less Comparison

In this document I am using Sass's SCSS syntax. You can choose to use the indented syntax in sass, if you prefer it, it has no functional differences from the SCSS syntax.

For Less, I'm using the JavaScript version because this is what they suggest on the website. The ruby version may be different.

This gist is a collection of common patterns I've personally used here and there with Custom Elements.

These patterns are all basic suggestions that could be improved, enriched, readapted, accordingly with your needs.

# It prints all cell phone call + SMS message + MMS records, plus a summary of each.
#
# It also dumps all of the records into CSV files inside a 'CSV' folder, that is created

Static Site Generators

Backstory: I decided to crowdsource static site generator recommendations, so the following are actual real world suggested-to-me results. I then took those and sorted them by language/server and, just for a decent relative metric, their Github Watcher count. If you want a heap of other projects (including other languages like Haskell and Python) Nanoc has the mother of all site generator lists. If you recommend another one, by all means add a comment.
