Ever needed a reference page with all the methods, callers, attributes etc of the language you coding in? There are numerous cheat sheets available, but you going to have to do some searching to find them all.
Pete Freitag has nicely listed around 30 cheat sheets over at his blog.
Lets face it, unless you have a photographic memory, no developer can remember all the different functions, options, tags, etc. that exist. Documentation can be cumbersome at times, thats why I like cheat sheets. They are quick references that feature the most commonly forgotten things on a specific topic. You can print them out and hang them on your wall, or just keep them handy in your bookmarks for quick reference.
A couple of my favourites are by Dave Child over at Ilovejackdaniels.com
- CSS cheat sheet
- Ruby on Rails cheat sheet
- HTML Character Entities cheat sheet
- PHP cheat sheet
- MySQL cheat sheet
Check out the full list of cheat sheets here.
