Creator here - thank you for sharing!<p>Hackterms is a crowdsourced dictionary of coding terms. While learning to code, I&#x27;d often fall down a rabbit hole of research for things I didn&#x27;t really need. There are lots of resources that teach you how to do something, but few explain when and why. So, I built Hackterms to answer these questions:<p>1. at a high level, what does this tool&#x2F;process&#x2F;concept do?<p>2. When is it used? What are the alternatives?<p>3. Is this worth my time to learn now?<p>Let me know what you think!
