Web Excursions are select bookmarks from my travels around the interwebs, because I'm always thinking about you while discovering other people's cool stuff. You mean that much to me. You can see all of my (public) bookmarks on Pinboard, and visit the bookmarks archive for curated lists across the last few years.

Web excursions brought to you in partnership with MindMeister, the best collaborative mind mapping software out there.

Almost complete guide to flexbox (without flexbox)
A cheatsheet for replicating flexbox (CSS) functionality with backwards-compatible methods.
Docbase
Another documentation system based on Markdown files. I love the built-in realtime search that’s automatically generated. My home brew system for Marked 2 documentation does a lot of this, but I may be switching over to a more polished system like this soon.
Nuclino
This collaborative wiki for teams is really nice. Simple in form and function, but with tools that make creating and maintaining a knowledge base easier (including some Markdown support within the rich text editor). Currently released as a free preview, pricing packages to be announced after full release.

I had a chat with the creators of Nuclino about the goals of this project. I think the roadmap sounds excellent and am looking forward to doing a more in-depth review as new features come together.

Flow

Flow is a static type checker for JavaScript. It can be used to catch common bugs in JavaScript programs before they run, including: silent type conversions, null dereferences, and the dreaded undefined is not a function.

The latest version of Gemini is incredibly smart about locating and removing duplicate files on your Mac’s hard drive. John Voorhees has a full review over at MacStories.
Jam API
A service that can turn any website into a JSON API using CSS selectors.
