Clean Code
Talks about how to write and structure readable code, and why you should do it. Also talks about TDD
Refactoring
Shows you how to refactor code effectively and progressively, the last edition uses JavaScript for the examples
Pragmatic Programmer
Probably the most popular book. Talks about soft skills, tooling, development, everything that makes you a better developer. Should read this at least once in your life
Code Complete
Bit old but still relevant. It's a compendium of techniques
Design Patterns - gang of four
Self explanatory title, teaches you how to write better and scalable code depending on what you're trying to solve
Not "classic" but I think useful anyway: Cracking the coding interview
Teaches algorithms and data structures (+ how to pass interviews at the big companies)
If you want to pick just one I would read clean code or pragmatic programmer
For further actions, you may consider blocking this person and/or reporting abuse
We're a place where coders share, stay up-to-date and grow their careers.
