Collection Of Cheatsheets for Designers & Developers

One thing i learned when i started working as designer was that you never have enough time to memorize everything and you can’t do everything by yourself. Well, what can i say, what’s true is true. Cheatsheets and lot of other quick reference guides proved very helpful for me. Unfortunately they’re not always easy to find when you actually need them. For that reason, i decided to take some of my “precious” time to gather some resources and share them with you.

Hopefully this might save a little time as well as teach you a new trick or two. I have divided the resources into various categories to make them more easier to find. So, here we go:
