With just over 3 months since the mainnet launch, EOS is rapidly growing it's users and developer community.
At the time of this article being written EOS has reached over 20,000,000 irreversible blocks and achieved a throughput of 3996 Transactions Per Second (TPS).
Even more impressive is the growing active user base. As of today, the top 10 EOS dApps has over 24,822 active users; close to 4 times the active users for the top 10 dApps on Etherum currently. (source).
Not bad for our first 90 days!
Our work is not done though, it's just starting. As we approach our very first EOS developer workshop this week in Denver, EOS Rise, we wanted to create a useful resource developers could reference to find all the latest tools, plugins and libraries related to EOS dApp development.
We know how scattered everything can be, especially in these early days, but things are getting better bit by bit, block by block.
So without further ado... here is our big list of EOS developer resources...
One of the strengths of EOS is it's amazing developer community. Don't ever feel ashamed to have to reach out and ask for help. You will find in any of the channels below there are a ton of EOS developers who are knowledgable and happy to help you with your problem. The first thing you need to do is get use to Telegram because you'll be using it a lot. ☠️
This is the main hub for EOS developers at the moment and is geared towards EOS development discussion only (yes, only!). You can get just about any question you have answered by other community members as well as Block One staff themselves. Even 
The official group for the EOS Rise Developer Workshop series. You can find Phil Mesnier, Eugene Luzgin and other mentors from the ecosystem here who are happy to answer any technical questions you have.

One of the very first things you should do is get involved with an EOS testnet so you can begin testing your dApp. The two main testnets for EOS that are active and supported are Jungle and Cryptokylin. We advise developers become familiar with both of these tesnet environments.
One of the oldest and more reliable testnets in the ecosystem, Jungle has become a pillar in the EOS development community.
CryptoKylin Testnet is a developer-friendly testnet maintained mostly by a group of EOS Mainnet Block Producers based in China, but there are active participants all over the world.
