Ask HN: What are your most recommended GitHub repos to learn from?

6 points by casem921 7y ago ↗ HN

My background is mostly frontend development and I'm always looking to learn more about C.S. fundamentals and how JavaScript libraries can be used for full-scale app development. I find myself checking out the following from time to time:

https://github.com/gothinkster/realworld

https://github.com/prakhar1989/awesome-courses/blob/master/README.md

https://github.com/jwasham/coding-interview-university

Any good gems out there you recommend?

For Rails and general backend development, I liked reading through the backend code for Gitlab CE (https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce). Their code style follows Rails best practices pretty extensively.

For smaller projects with fewer configuration points, don't worry about abstracting as much as they do.
