It is approaching the end of the spring term for my students on the DMD11 course at Winchester University. Yeah, they get an easy life, they are soon to have 4 weeks off….

While they are on their ‘break’ they have a project to complete. As you may have guessed if you have seen any of my recent slides, is that they are making mobile web apps. As they will not have any direct contact with a tutor or mentor over the 4 week break. I have decided to try and give them some help by pointing them in the right direction for anything they may need while away.

I have therefore created 2 cheatsheets for them:

• CSS Cheatsheet
• JavaScript Cheatsheet

There are also various other excellent resources:
