Has anyone found this site actually useful? As in, you wouldn't have been able to find this information, in a format as nice as this, when you needed it?<p>This site just looks like SEO spam to me. But it is number 5 on the 1st page of HN so maybe I'm wrong.
Honest Question - How do you guys use these cheat sheets? Take large print outs and keep on desk? Just keep the electronic copy somewhere easily accessible? Printout and hang it on the wall?
DZone has a large set of professional cheat sheets called Refcardz, including HTML5, CSS, and jQuery. <a href="http://refcardz.dzone.com" rel="nofollow">http://refcardz.dzone.com</a><p>Also check out <a href="http://cheatsheets.org/" rel="nofollow">http://cheatsheets.org/</a>
The designer is supposed to be an expert in all of this stuff? I thought he was supposed to be an expert in graphic design?<p>I remember a time, many years ago, when if you wanted to edit a graphical user interface, you would use a graphical user interface to do that. Since the interface you are editing is graphical.<p>I have been manually doing this CSS / HTML stuff for many years, but I think that it would make about 100x more sense if we used the CSS/HTML just as a format for the editing and display tools to store and retrieve the data.<p>I actually think the biggest reason we are still doing it by hand is that people (like myself) are afraid that someone will think they aren't a real programmer if they use a GUI.<p>After all, programmers write ASCII codes, and if you're not doing that, you're not programmer. Right?
Cheat sheets are really great and I bookmark all of them but somehow I never use them (or find the bookmark again). I rather google "<language> <topic>" which works best for me.<p>Are you using them actually? Printing them all out or using them as wallpapers??
Hmm... at one point I came across a really nice physical laminated HTML / CSS / JS cheat sheet but haven't been able to find it since. Would anyone happen to know what I'm talking about and where to get it?
My favorite in the day was gotAPI (<a href="http://www.gotapi.com/html" rel="nofollow">http://www.gotapi.com/html</a>) because you could quickly type what you were looking for. Sadly they have not kept up.
By time I've looked something up on these I could have "Ctrl+T ?<whatever>"d it or use dochub or one of a bunch of others that do the same thing. Is it the physical presence that makes people love these so much? They seem far less usable as a horizontal PDF than more... digital and accessible means.
