I made a repository called XbyY, that aims to be a database of commonly faced problems in software development, some of which can be actually easily solved using a library, framework or a software development methodology.
The problems that we will address are typically of the kind that cannot be easily discovered via a google search, either because it's verbose or a newbie like me might not know what to call it and if a thing like it already exists.
Xs are the problems and Ys are simple yet elegant solutions to it. The Ys could be libraries, frameworks or code snippets (not limited to it though). They may also be design patterns, data structures, etc.
It's an easy/medium PR. You can find the repository here. Thanks for reading! :D
Question. How broad or specific can the problems be and also the solutions? For instance a common gotcha in React with state and stuff or something like proper architecture in a Spring app.
Yes that can be included. The problems may range from very broad stuff, like exchanging states like you mentioned, or testing, or an architecture and even narrower ones like how to do form validation easily (problems can actually be argued upon to be narrower or broader ones I believe). But solution has to be very specific so that someone who is having that problem actually finds solution helpful and understandable. It should contain resources so that he/she, in most cases will not have to look beyond these resources when practically approaching the problem. You can also include multiple solutions and tutorials links, etc. to those.
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.
