What Are the Best Tools in the GitHub Student Developer Pack?

[Pravena21]

Hi everyone,

I'm Pravena, a student passionate about web development and currently exploring UI/UX design and React (Next.js). I recently got access to the GitHub Student Developer Pack and I’m super excited to explore all the tools and resources available!

I love building meaningful projects currently working on a few ideas focused on community platforms and personal productivity. I'm here to learn, share, and connect with like-minded devs and creators. Feel free to say hi or drop any suggestions if you've already explored the pack!

Hi Pravena,
I am Charaka Hashan. GitHub Student Developer Pack is packed with some seriously useful tools, and it’s a great way to boost your dev journey. Since you’re diving into UI/UX and React (especially with Next.js), as much as i know you might really enjoy exploring tools like

• Figma – for UI/UX design work
• Canva Pro – makes creating quick visuals and mockups super easy
• Vercel – perfect for deploying my Next.js projects
• JetBrains IDEs – using WebStorm for React dev
• Notion Pro – great for organizing my project tasks and design docs
• Frontend Masters & Educative – have amazing courses on React, UI/UX, and full-stack dev
• Sentry – helpful for monitoring and debugging real-time issues in my apps
• Namecheap – grabbed a free domain to host my portfolio!

I would love to hear more about your projects as they grow. Feel free to share your progress or reach out if you ever want to bounce ideas!
