The 7 Most Popular DEV Posts from the Past Week

Every Monday we round up the previous week's top posts based on traffic, engagement, and a hint of editorial curation. The typical week starts on Monday and ends on Sunday, but don't worry, we take into account posts that are published later in the week. ❤️

1. Meta-list

Andrew went through 36 sources and compiled a list of the books recommended most often in lists of recommended books.

2. What is your password?

Nathilia walks us through hashing algorithms and reasonable password policies.

3. A Visually Appealing Journey

Tee challenged themselves to level up their CSS skills by coding animations for 25 days in a row. This is an inspiring post with lots of cool animations and suggestions for anyone looking to take on a similar challenge!

4. The "Next Big Thing"

Xiaoru shares ten fundamental concepts of Svelte -- everything you need to get started.

5. A Practical Approach

Andrea teaches us the core concepts of functional programming and how we can use them to our advantage.

6. What Happened?

Jason (and the community) reflects on how their relationship with Stack Overflow has changed over the years.

7. "Edutainment"

bun.py, aka a notoriously nerdy space cowgirl, shares five extremely useful extensions for live coding.

That's it for our weekly wrap up! Keep an eye on dev.to this week for daily content and discussions...and if you miss anything, we'll be sure to recap it next Monday!
