Six years after the first edition, the official guide to DelphiMVCFramework is back, rewritten for 3.5.0-silicon. Thirty chapters, more than 550 pages, and 46 Delphi projects that compile and run. You build one real API, the Municipal Library, and grow it from a wizard-generated project into a deployed server with authentication, OpenID Connect, WebSockets and HTTPS.

Bestselling book on building LLMs. A practical, project-driven manual for engineers who want to understand how modern language models are built — and where they fail — by writing every layer themselves. From a scalar autograd engine to RLHF to fused specialists, in 36 hands-on projects with deliberate sabotage experiments. Build it. Break it. Measure it.

This book takes you straight into the Compose compiler, runtime, and UI layer, all about Compose performance tuning, reading the source line by line and explaining the why behind every design decision, then connecting each internal mechanism back to the code you write every day.

Your use cases have a new reader: an AI agent that turns them directly into code and tests. Implementation is now cheap but expressing intent precisely is the bottleneck. This guide teaches you to write use cases that work for stakeholders, engineers, and the AI agents that implement from them.

AI is an amplifier. It magnifies whatever engineering discipline — or lack of it — already exists, which means the bottleneck was never AI's capability; it is the collaboration space you design around it. This book is a six-level progression from early AI panic to sovereign engineering: the discipline of designing the environment in which human and artificial intelligence produce work worth keeping. It moves past prompting into the practices that compound — verification, habitat engineering, specification-first development, and the platform discipline that scales the practice across teams. The habitat is yours to design. Let's build it well.
