I have quite a few of these bibles too. I'd love to swap some files if you're interested, I'm sure there is much to learn from yours. My Gmail username is the same as my HN username if you are interested.


Ah but when you say “bibles”, what do you mean exactly? Is it just common/useful code you fold related to a particular language/framework? Could you elaborate on this


Usually there's a getting started section, mostly links to important nuances in the fine documenting and short code examples. Then there will be a section for each problem that I've encountered - often things that I've solved by reading Stack Overflow answers. But then there are the footguns and pitfalls - this is where the real value of these files lie.


Oh that’s a really great idea. Thank you for elaborating; I think I will get into a habit of doing a similar thing
