## What it is
An opinionated curated list ('Landscaping With Front-end Tools') cataloging tools for desktop web frontend development, covering build tools, package managers, CSS frameworks, HTML boilerplates, and more. The content is deprecated and has evolved into the 'Front-end Handbook' book.

## Use cases
- find frontend development tools for html js and css
- discover build tools and task runners like grunt gulp and brunch
- compare css frameworks such as bootstrap foundation and semantic ui
- find html boilerplates and css base stylesheets
- browse a curated catalog of frontend package managers like bower and jspm
- learn what frontend tooling existed for desktop web development

## When to choose
- you want a broad historical survey of frontend tooling options
- you are researching the evolution of frontend build and package management tools
- you want a starting point that links to the maintained Front-end Handbook

## When to avoid
- you need up-to-date recommendations, since the list is explicitly deprecated and last touched in 2022
- you need tools for mobile or tablet web development, which the list excludes
- you need a runnable tool rather than a reference list
