What Data Structures Are Important to Web Development and Why Should You Care?

Hey, great post! I’d say the most underrated data structure for web dev is the heap. It’s not something you use every day, but when you need it (like for priority queues or scheduling tasks), it’s a lifesaver.

Also, trees are clutch for anything hierarchical, like building a file system or even rendering components in React.

For resources, I’d recommend “JavaScript Data Structures and Algorithms” by Sammie Bae. It’s a solid book that ties everything back to web dev.
