A large, actively maintained collection of short 'Today I Learned' write-ups covering thousands of small tips across dozens of languages, tools, and technologies. It serves as a searchable public knowledge base rather than a software artifact.

Use cases

  • find quick tips for git commands
  • learn small vim and neovim tricks
  • look up shell and bash one-liners
  • discover concise explanations of javascript and typescript quirks
  • browse short postgresql and sqlite tips
  • learn docker and devops tidbits
  • find short notes on tools like jq, tmux, and sed

When to choose

  • you want concise, practical tips on a wide range of developer tools and languages
  • you need a quick answer that doesn't warrant full documentation or a blog post
  • you're looking for inspiration for learning in public or writing your own TIL repo

When to avoid

  • you need comprehensive tutorials or in-depth documentation for a specific technology
  • you need runnable software, a library, or a tool
  • you need authoritative or peer-reviewed reference material
