bricked my brand new kobo libra 2 three times trying to put my books on it and creating collections
For ePubs, any editing program (e.g. Calibre, Sigil, etc) will have an ePub check feature. You can also use the W3C's standalone ePub check tool: https://www.w3.org/publishing/epubcheck/

Does your Kobo Libra 2 freeze sometimes?
As others have pointed out, this is often caused by books that are either corrupted or incorrectly formatted in some way or another. If the books that cause the freezes are sideloaded this is a likely culprit, and you can try testing them with EPUBcheck or Calibre. If the books are bought via the Kobo store it's less likely the book itself is the issue.

Preferred Grammar Medium to Read
I generally write the HTML and XML files by hand and then use epubcheck to verify if I screwed something up and package the individual source files into a single .epub file (which is basically a .zip file).
