👾 😷 🚀
COVID-19 continues disrupting lives. Some are going through
severe health situations. Others have lost their jobs. And by now,
many of us are quarantined in our homes.
Life may feel tough now, but don't despair. This can be a time to
learn new things, get better at your craft or enjoy (virtual) time
with friends and family.
This page is a list of high-quality resources available for free or
cheaper than usual due to the COVID-19.
If you like them, use them or share them with others. If you know of
something that is not here,
please let me know.
