Two days ago, I put up a simple survey that asked what essential tools, libs and frameworks you were using for front-end development. I closed out the survey last night a little before 9pm EST and after getting 1000+ responses. I now wanted to share the results.

<h3>The Process</h3>

As I've mentioned, this was an incredibly unscientific survey and not meant to determine which tool is best. Just which tools seem to be in heavy use.

I'm doing this to help web developers stay on top of commonly used tools. Since change constantly but at least this gives 
a snapshot of what's frequently used.

After closing the survey, I removed all blank records and then went entry by entry to factor in the "Other" submissions and list out tools not originally added on the survey.

I ended up with 1031 total responses that I felt were good submissions.

Important to note is that the following options were added after 218 people had already replied so those values could've been much higher if added at the beginning. This is evident in Git & Coffeescript's high numbers despite being added late.
<ul><li>LESS</li>
<li>Git</li>
<li>ExtJS</li>
<li>Ember.js</li>
<li>prefix-free</li>
<li>JSBin</li>
<li>JSFiddle</li>
<li>dabblet</li>
<li>Kendo UI</li>
<li>Wijmo</li>
<li>Coffeescript</li>
<li>YUI</li></ul>
