It's time for the next edition of our Knowledge X-Pollination, with more interesting resources provided by our mentors!

The resources are separated into two parts — the first part includes tech-related resources. The second part includes resources on things that everyone should keep in their mind, but which aren't technology-specific.

Technology

The Blockchain

by Piotr Pasich

A week which is mostly about practice. If you would like to participate, your homework is to create a simple node.js application, install the required modules and connect to the node you created if you followed last week's Blockchain resources.

Here are the gems of this week:

Go

by Zach Goldstein

This week we're delving into an old but awesome technology — IRC — by checking out a modern IRC server written in Go.

Node

by Nick Plekhanov

A look back at what exactly happened to Node.js so far, from the point where it was born. The history of Node.js on a timeline: 2009-2018.

React

by Michał Miszczyszyn

There’s been a lot of noise about the new React Async mode and the fancy new Context API and how it replaces Redux (I hate to spoil it for you: It doesn’t).

So here are a few useful articles to catch up!

What do you think? Did you like what you found here? Would you recommend something else? Let us know in the comments. Also, check out last week's and next week's X-Pollination.
