Sahil, I am interested in helping you but helping someone with a website to me doesn't mean doing a pull request every now and then.
If you are the kind of person who likes to communicate and talk about what we're doing then I will have a serious look. Otherwise I wish you the best of luck because this is like a "let me Google that for you" on steroids and I think it is a nice idea.

I think 3rd party tutorials on how to approach some new technology can help to start a newbie on this technology. Sometimes official documentation can be scare. I think maybe each section could have the official resources linked and then the list of the best 3rd party tutorials to dive in.

This seems like a great idea!

My typical goto for getting "best tutorials" is those "awesome-" repositories on GitHub. (github.com/sindresorhus/awesome)

Nice idea, Sahil. But I have one concern: How do you make sure that the upvotes/downvotes are real. Did you consider the possibility of cheating to get more upvotes? I think it's very important to maintain the accuracy otherwise people are going to be confused anyway. Good luck on your project!

To upvote/ downvote the links, user have to login through twitter.

I disagree with that entirely. The first thing I thought was that once this has more content you can look up very specific things.

Hi, this is a very nice idea Sahil. Though I don't think twitter should be the only way to login. There are social networks that are far more popular than twitter. One could also argue that developers who are putting some content could maybe login with github accounts.

It's a great idea since the first time I want to learn something, I first visit simple tutorials before heading to the documentation
