The Freeside Student Resources list consists of multiple categories of professional and academic resources which are aimed at aiding University of Hull Computer Science students to gain further knowledge; however, most resources will be able to help learners from outside the university.
Freeside welcome contributions to these lists from staff and students at the University of Hull, as well as members of the public. If you wish to contribute, please abide by the following rules:
If you're not sure how to contribute, please follow [this handy tutorial](https://love.edwardcharl.es/contributing-to-the-freeside-srl/) alternatively, [jump straight in with VS Code for Github](https://github.dev/FreesideHull/StudentResources).
