New category

Maybe it's a limitation to my knowledge domain but I wasn't able to classify some of the free products like API services, free plugins, and tools in the provided categories. For reference, I wasn't able to add SQL smash in any category.
So, I think a new category for these kinds of services might be added.
References :

• StoryScript
• PushBots
• SQL Smash
• Termius
• Transloadit

If they can be added to any existing category , then I'll be happy to contribute or see someone contributing.

Storyscript gives 404 when trying to access

also I haven't been able to locate where to register now or signin using GItHub. Thought it was just me but other student accounts seeing the same. https://storyscript.io/github-student-pack

O'Reilly update

The O'Reilly membership through ACM doesn't require an ACM Digital Library subscription; it just needs ACM Membership.

However, since about a month ago, O'Reilly is no longer provided with an ACM student membership. One option is to get an ACM professional membership for $99 per year. I think there is a way to pay a supplement on top of the student membership to get access to O'Reilly, but I don't know if the details are published on the ACM website.

See https://learning.acm.org/faq/oreilly-faqs

Discount to O'Reilly Online Learning through the ACM

O'Reilly's Online Learning is a great resource with tons of books and training videos. It cost $39 a month or $399 a year. However, Computer Science and IT students can sign up to ACM (Association for Computing Machinery) at a great discount. As long as they sign up for a membership level that contains the Digital Library, then they will also get access to O'reilly's Online Learning platform.

The cheapest way is to sign up for Student Membership PLUS Digital Library which cost $42 a year. That is only 10% of the cost of signing up for a year through O'Reilly directly.

I would make a pull request myself, but I am unsure of what section this would fall under.

Lastpass edupromo

It's missing.

Details: https://lastpass.com/edupromo.php

Specify discount amounts

Maybe differentiate between free and discounted. Some students can't or won't buy things, so it might be nice to differentiate.

License is weird

At the bottom of the README, in the license block, is the text: "the underlying source code used to format and display that content is licensed under the MIT license."

That doesn't make sense, though, given that there's only two files in the repo and one branch. PR?

GitPod is no longer available with the GitHub Student Pack

Hiya!

As a student myself I have found that Github has replaced GitPod with GitHub Codespaces in the GitHub Student Pack.
Later I'll create a PR to fix the README and put it here.

Thanks ^^
