10 types of resource lists to compile for software developers

Every programming language or software framework has its own unique ecosystem and community that forms around it. Because a ton of today's popular technologies are open source, these communities form organically and knowledge is shared across many different mediums. Lists of resources pertaining to these technologies can be extremely valuable to developers at all levels of experience.

There's a tradition of communities maintaining "awesome" lists on GitHub such as these:

What's the top book for a developer to read?

It totally depends on what technology your'e in and where you're at in your career, but one that I'm reading now and that a lot of folks might benefit from is Grokking Algorithms by Aditya Bhargava. Many companies require interviewees to explain common algorithms in their job interview. This book helps developers brush up on their algorithms, whether because it's been a while since they learned them in school or if, like me, they're self taught! Heres a link:
