Paid $50 for a CSS animation ebook from 2016 and it's honestly still gold

Picked up a digital copy of a CSS transitions guide that came out before flexbox was even mainstream, and the basic principles have helped me debug two tricky projects this month. Anyone else got old resources that still pull their weight?

Haha "still gold" - more like aged like milk but somehow still works, right? I've got a jQuery book from 2012 that I still crack open when some old site breaks.

You ever had a book you swore you'd never touch again? I was all about moving on from jQuery, thought it was dead weight. Then I had to fix a checkout page from 2016 that was held together with dollar signs and callbacks. That old reference guide saved me a whole day of digging through stack overflow. Funny how stuff you wrote off comes back around.
