Wow, these types of 'learn programming / learn web' sites are popping up everywhere!

Love it! Writer, if you want some contribution, I've got some ideas and drafts down as I was writing some of this for my own blog.

I'm pleasantly surprised to see this on the front page. It's a very basic site with very basic concepts. I'm happy to see HN honoring the hard work of a single individual. I used to enjoy sites like Techcrunch and Mashable for this very reason, but they've grown up and disregard the little guys now.

A bit confused with some tutorials going PHP, others going MySQL, the rest JavaScript.

  Web development isn't just one language/tool.
  - gokulk 14y ago
    If this is a set of tutorials for new developers, it needs to be labeled
    - Yaggo 14y ago
      New developers would do themselves a big favor by staying out from PHP. (Saying this as a former PHP coder.)

I really like this. I'm more of a middleware guy but I need to know these things for my job. I like how things are written: minimal fluff and a lot of "this is an approach on how to do X".

A couple of months ago, I bought the full link shortener package from Codular, but didn't get any automatic confirmation email or the actual product. A quick email to the maintainer, and he forwarded me a copy in under 10 minutes, no questions asked. Stand-up guy and a great product to boot. I always love seeing a new article from Codular pop up in my RSS reader.

I'd love to collect a small list of sites that cater to beginning web developers like this, could anyone think of a few more?

Jesus, that JSON article is unreal. Probably the best I've read all year.

  Well, you are the author after all...
- riquito 14y ago
  Don't you have any shame?

    Hopefully, the "best I've read all year" implies he was speaking rather tongue-in-cheek (since, you know, new year and all).

Good stuff.

maybe you can categorize the articles a bit: client / server / database or so ...

Articles are very well written! Thumbs up Ben! :D
- wrighty52 14y ago
  I think you're mistaken. Ben wrote one article, Michael wrote the others, except for the CodeIgniter one.
