A curated list of useful Git repos
This week, I will share a list of GitHub repositories that will help you prepare for your next technical/coding interview.

2. How to Secure Anything
If you are preparing for a technical interview in the security space, then this is a great repository for you.
https://github.com/veeral-patel/how-to-secure-anything
The concepts in the repo are not only applicable to computer security but to securing anything from a medieval castle to an art museum to a computer network.
3. The System Design Primer
This one is my personal favorite. This repository has outlined all the system design concepts in an easily understandable and organized way.
https://github.com/donnemartin/system-design-primer
Most tech companies will have a system design interview as part of the hiring process, and nailing the system design interview is key to getting the job. I highly recommend you go through the concepts outlined in the repo before any system design interview.
4. JavaScript Algorithms and Data Structures
Algorithm and data structure questions are staples of any coding interview. This repository contains JavaScript-based examples of many popular algorithms and data structures.

If your weapon of choice is JavaScript, then you should definitely check this repository out.
5. JavaScript Questions
This one is for beginners. This repository contains a huge list of multiple-choice JavaScript questions that can be helpful in brushing up your JavaScript knowledge.

If you are in the process of learning JavaScript, then this repository is very useful.
6. Clean Code - JS
This repository is a guide to produce readable, reusable, and refactorable software in JavaScript. It is based on Robert C. Martin’s book Clean Code but adapted for JavaScript.

Regardless of whether you are preparing for an interview or not, every software developer should go through this guide.
7. Interview Handbook
This is your handbook for technical interviews. I found this one to be the best organized and easy to go through. It also has tips and tricks on how to handle behavioral questions that can be difficult to deal with sometimes.

As stated in the README, this is a multi-month study plan for going from a web developer (self-taught, no CS degree) to software engineer for a large company.

Concepts in the repo will help you become a good software engineer.
