Greetings, newsletter-lovers! It's time for another exciting edition of your favorite weekly read. We've scoured the internet for the best content to keep you both entertained and informed. And, we're proud to say, we've found some real gems this week!
First up, for all you developer out there, we have a list of 5 tools to automate your development. Say goodbye to the days of painstakingly coding away at each task. These tools will help you streamline your processes and get more done in less time, leaving you with more time to enjoy life (or work on your side projects!)
For those of you working with React or interested in learning more, we've got an informative piece on the power of custom hooks in React
Are you interested in building a realtime app with NodeJS and ReactJS? Look no further than this tutorial on using Socket.io
For anyone who's ever lost their work due to a computer crash or failed hard drive, we present to you 不知名大佬备份, which roughly translates to "Unknown Guru Backup". It's a comprehensive backup tool that saves all your files and documents in one place, giving you peace of mind that your important data is safe and secure.
Finally, for our gamers out there, we have something really special. Introducing Godot Engine – a multi-platform 2D and 3D game engine
