Introduction

In this world of information as a software engineer we have some great resources that guide us and provide us with information required for our daily activities.

Some of the references available to us are:

• stackoverflow.com
• medium.com
• Engineering blogs written by an organization or by an individual
• Github Repositories
• Recently some LLMs like ChatGPT, Bard etc.
• Youtube/Tutorials/MOOC
• Private Groups.
• And many more
