Before flights with patchy/no wifi, I often download a long, single-page tutorial. This is perfect. Curious if anyone knows of any for other languages/tech (e.g. beyond SQL).

Shameless Plug: - Not single page _per se_ but I have plenty of Jupyter Notebook based tutorials here: https://github.com/DataForScience/ https://github.com/DataForScience/ Self contained with slide decks and notebooks.

Got any other favorite tutorials you've used for this kind of flight?

  I made a couple of my own (they're incredibly scrappy, probably won't make sense to anyone but me): - Ruby: https://github.com/stevecondylios/ruby-learning-resources/blob/master/ruby.md https://github.com/stevecondylios/ruby-learning-resources/bl... - Rails: https://github.com/stevecondylios/ruby-learning-resources/blob/master/rails.md https://github.com/stevecondylios/ruby-learning-resources/bl... But this vim cheatsheet was great: - https://vim.rtorr.com/ https://vim.rtorr.com/ A failed attempt was to load (very) many (e.g. about 100) pages of javascript lessons from w3schools before the plane took off, but for some reason the pages tried to refresh during the flight and I lost them all, so that was a massive waste of time (opening them all before the flight took about 20 minutes).

Rust's tutorial isn't single page but it comes with the compiler. Just run `rustup docs --book` after installing rustup
