I had moved it into another repo and compiled my favirate reads, artciles together. :)
Originally forked from Essential JavaScript Links but modified according to personal favor.
This is a very exclusive collection of only must-have JavaScript links. I'm only listing my favorite links. Nothing else makes the cut. Feel free to suggest links if you think they're good enough to make this list. The really curious should feel free to browse the comments to find other links. I can't guarantee the quality of links in the comments.
If you want to view the well organized version, please head to this link.
