This is intended to be a growing library of useful links for documentation and articles specific to the different technologies and libraries we use for our projects.
To keep ahead of the curve it is a good idea to use the Google Chrome dev channel version of the browser where many of the ES6 features can be used within the dev console without transpiling via Babel.
Chrome Canary build can also be used, but it tends to break things rather too often!
Learn ES2015 - Babel's detailed overview which was developed from the ES6 features guide.
Essential JS links - the list to end all lists! Curated by Eric Elliot who also has many very good javascript articles.
A re-introduction to JS - good to refresh and fill in a few gaps in the basics.
