web tools
Tools for building web frontends, the smaller and simpler the better.
Articles

- Hypermedia Systems: Book covering the design of applications that leverage the strength of hypermedia (the concept underpinning HTML and the Web as we know it) instead of the JS-heavy approaches we see so much of today.
Tools
