Also, the resources list is complete without sharing the most important tool for filling content, the beloved placeholder generator for developers, the one and only [lorem ipsum generator](https://loremipsum.io/). Haha!

You don't need a lot of resources but some good resources and sticking to them without procrastinating and finishing them till the end. Because collecting a lot of resources without actually building cool projects won't yield results.

It took a good amount of time to list down all the resources, if you liked it, please like it. Thanks!

_(Feel free to comment or point out my mistakes, will be happy to rectify them.)_

Keep going. One step at a time.

Peace Out!
