The Best JavaScript Courses of Hacker News
Hacker News was created by Paul Graham, co-founder of Y Combinator, as a place for tech-savvy individuals to share and discuss interesting content related to technology, startups, programming, and more.
Initially, it started as a simple link aggregator, where users could submit links to articles, blog posts, and projects they found intriguing.
Over time, it evolved into a thriving community with a strong emphasis on intellectual curiosity, thoughtful discussions, and quality content.
I'm an avid reader of Hacker News and often come across high-quality discussions from the community. I found that the courses and books people discuss on Hacker News are really good, so I conduct monthly analyses and aggregate the top courses/books found in comments and rank them.

Our methodology
We conducted this analysis by "ranking things based on social signals"
It's the result of mining the HN archives for references to online courses and then ranking them and displaying all references in one place.
Ranking currently takes into account HN stories (points) and comments (sentiment, karma, estimated points).
