The compiling happens automatically so it removes an extra step from your development cycle - just edit the LESS then refresh the browser :) Just as another resource for using LESS that may be worth mentioning (plus shameless self promotion) – I put together a compiler that can be used in WordPress themes or plugins as an include.

Especially the JSBin and Dabblet. Thanks a lot! For HTML5 and CSS3 I would like to let you know that HTML5 & CSS3 For The Real World (Sitepoint) book by Alexis Goldstein is very comprehensive. I admit HTML5 section on the book is not too rich to learn, but when you see CSS3 section you'll find the gold there. Oh, the Canvas, SVG, and Drag and Drop is available on page 265 and It's particular part. The references being spread here are very time savers. Especially the JSBin and Dabblet. Thanks a lot!

From learning the advantages and disadvantages of new libraries such as Knockout, Underscore, Backbone & Spine, to teaching myself how these libraries work by writing performant object-orientated JS, to finally unit-testing my JS using QUnit or Jasmine. First stop for me is the second section. Learning how to write OO JS by deconstructing other libraries. A couple of resources I'll be using to get started: JS libs deconstructed: http://www.keyframesandcode.com/resources/javascript/deconstructed/ Paul Irish: 10 things I learned from the JQuery source: http://paulirish.com/2010/10-things-i-learned-from-the-jquery-source/ Paul Irish: 11 more things I learned from the JQuery source: http://paulirish.com/2011/11-more-things-i-learned-from-the-jquery-source/ If anyone has any more resources, please let me know! Finally, I haven't really found a series of articles that teach you how to write OO JS in an way that easily makes sense to me. If this project can help in this, it'll be one (of hopefully many) major success(es). 2012 is all about JavaScript for me.
