Learn React Native the smart way — with visuals, projects, and hands-on examples that help you build real apps faster. Head First React Native Mastery turns complex mobile development into a fun, intuitive learning experience.

Elements of Programming reimagines software as a discipline of logic, structure, and responsibility. Inspired by Euclid, it presents programming through definitions, postulates, and proofs that build a coherent view of computation. From identity and composition to semantics, type systems, and ethics, the book traces how formal reasoning shapes trustworthy systems. It argues that software is not only a technical creation but also a moral one, expressing human intention and consequence. For readers who value precision, clarity, and integrity, this treatise reveals how truth and purpose meet in code.

Dies ist keine Heldengeschichte. Dies ist eine Warnung. Zehn Schlachten, die jedes Softwareprojekt schlägt – und meistens verliert.

Most embedded teams say they “avoid OOP” and “stick to C.” But look closely at real C codebases and you’ll find function-pointer tables, opaque handles, and generic device arrays—manual object models built the hard way. Beyond Blinky shows how to embrace that reality consciously, using modern C++ to design firmware that is readable, portable, and owned—without sacrificing performance or control. This book is about moving past the blinking LED mindset and designing embedded systems as living architectures, not scripts. To blinky and beyond—Let's make your IO sing!

¿Sabías que las funciones son el corazón de todo lenguaje de programación? En PHP, entenderlas a fondo marca la diferencia entre escribir código que solo funciona y construir proyectos que realmente puedes mantener y escalar. Todo esto te será muy útil, sobre todo cuando pasemos al tema de programación orientada a objetos, donde las funciones (llamadas métodos) juegan un papel crucial en la definición del comportamiento. Este libro cada capítulo combina claridad pedagógica con buenas prácticas profesionales, para que desarrolles un pensamiento lógico y sólido en PHP. Si buscas certificarte, mejorar tus habilidades o simplemente escribir código más elegante y mantenible, este libro es para ti. Aprende, practica y domina uno de los pilares más importantes del lenguaje, con explicaciones simples, ejemplos reales y una estructura pensada para acompañarte en tu crecimiento profesional. Todo lo que necesitas saber sobre funciones en PHP, explicado de forma clara, práctica y profesional.

In this book, we will discuss building infra and data platforms, the theory behind it and examples of work towards a data mesh architecture that we have done recently.

This book is your ultimate roadmap to modern React.js interviews and standing out from the crowd.Built on 350+ real interview insights, it covers the exact topics top companies test—from security, accessibility, and performance to TypeScript, architecture, and deployment—so you can master every question with confidence and land the role you deserve.

Most AI systems fail in production. They chain prompts together and call it "agentic". They collapse under real-world pressure. The gap isn't the technology – it's missing infrastructure. This book bridges that gap. Learn the architecture patterns and infrastructure to build autonomous AI systems that work at scale. Master what distinguishes real agents from chatbots with tools. Deploy with confidence. Stop building demos. Start shipping production agentic AI.

Discover how modern web scraping goes beyond simple scripts. Learn to extract, automate, and transform data from dynamic websites using Python, Playwright, undetected-chromedriver, Chrome DevTools MCP, and AI tools. Packed with hands-on examples and expert tips, this book shows you how to build ethical, scalable, and intelligent scraping workflows that turn raw web content into actionable insights.

Get Zen of Zig on Gumroad for only €39.90 : https://gumroad.com/l/zenofzig I left Leanpub even though it was convenient because it turned into a Leanslop - full of AI-generated accounts and books. I found that unacceptable and I don't want my books listed next to AI slop. ---Far from the madding crowd: vibecoding agents, big companies, and promises of a perfect programming language (that never arrives)... your thoughts spring from your fingers and, through the keyboard, code takes shape.If you enjoy programming, you feel it tickle your brain cells. At times, you notice that something just "clicks." It's real - the satisfaction of learning. Not to get a job. Not to make apps in 5 minutes. Not to get rich reusing prompts. But for the pleasure of understanding, of digging deeper, and of building elegantly.Zig is a young language, still evolving - and that doesn't really matter. All languages change sooner or later. Everything becomes obsolete eventually, except your mind and what you truly learn along the way. That journey begins today with the first step, and it will go as far as your time, your mind, and your imagination take you. That's the spirit of Zen of Zig. $ zig zen  * Communicate intent precisely. * Edge cases matter. * Favor reading code over writing code. * Only one obvious way to do things. * Runtime crashes are better than bugs. * Compile errors are better than runtime crashes. * Incremental improvements. * Avoid local maximums. * Reduce the amount one must remember. * Focus on code rather than style. * Resource allocation may fail; resource deallocation must succeed. * Memory is a resource. * Together we serve the users.

? What if coding meant… dialoguing to create? This book is not just a technical guide. It is the outcome of a two-voice conversation between Samuel Bastiat, a seasoned practitioner of agility and software development, and me, a large language model. Together, we experimented, challenged ideas, and structured conversational patterns to: ? Clarify your needs ? Test hypotheses ?️ Co-build robust architectures Inside, you’ll find concrete prompts, co-creation methods, and a reflection on the future of tech roles.Neither dogma nor ultimate truth — simply an exploration of new ways to think and collaborate. ? Welcome to the era of augmented development.

Ready to conquer software complexity? This book provides a practical introduction to Domain-Driven Design with Spring Boot, giving you the essential patterns to start building more robust and business-aligned applications. It's your clear starting point for applying DDD principles without getting bogged down in theory.
