How to keep up with new tech (for beginner web developers)

Web.dev by Google W3Schools Stack Overflow CSS-Tricks Can I use
  1. Learn how to build for the web and see where you stand 🌟

    Now, on to my personal favourite. Web.Dev has a really good set of tutorials on many topics web related and is my go to for anything new on the web. The authors tend to have very good and technical articles that can be a bit much for the everyday newbie or grizzled veteran. Nothing a little bit of copy pasta won't fix if you ask me. Just give the code a try and tinker till you have some idea of what the feature can and can't do.

  4. CSS-Tricks is a website about websites.
    I of course can't go on to the next section without mentioning css-tricks. There used to be a time when I'd rush to css-tricks if I needed help on how to implement something in CSS, now for some reason, much like with w3schools as well, I run towards MDN first. I mean MDN's website is great if you are looking for strong technical articles. But css-tricks goes out of it's way to let you know that "Hey, this is a new feature and you might wanna know it. Here's an in-depth article".

  5. Compatibility tables for support of HTML5, CSS3, SVG and more in desktop and mobile browsers.

    Another quicker way of knowing about the new HTML/CSS developments is using Can I Use..., a website that details what current features are supported by which browsers. It's a super useful tool for any web developer to have in-general, but in this case what we are looking for is the news section (currently down when I last checked - 12.Jul.2022), here there will be updates whenever a new feature is indexed, but I notice more CSS/HTML stuff on there than anything really, so really nice site to have bookmarked.
