If you’re a web designer and/or developer, then you know just how much information is required for each programming language along with designing and development techniques. It’s hard enough to remember everything there is to know about HTML and CSS, so what happens when you get into more advanced languages like Javascript, PHP, etc?
There is just no way that one could remember all of the rules, attributes, elements, etc. So that is where cheats sheets, like the ones listed below, come into play. To get you started, here are 8 cheat sheets that every web designer should have handy for quick referencing.
