Build financial systems that stay correct when requests repeat, events arrive late, and services fail. Learn practical patterns for money modeling, double-entry ledgers, idempotency, reconciliation, auditability, security, and invariant-driven testing—so every balance and transaction can be explained and trusted.

The most important impact of AI on software development isn't that it writes code faster — it's that it changes what you can delegate. Agentic Programming is a practical roadmap for climbing the AI Fluency Ladder: from prompting to agentic workflows, verified execution, and ultimately autonomous software development.

Go beyond the basics of Claude Code with a practical engineering reference built for real-world development. Explore architecture, workflows, security, team adoption and advanced agentic patterns, with concrete commands and working examples throughout. Learn how to use Claude Code effectively, reliably and safely in professional software projects.

You already know C++. Now learn how real C++ software is actually built.Follow one complete application from architecture and CMake to implementation, testing, Git, CI, Docker, and Qt.

Developer platforms promise to rewrite the laws of IT physics: they boost innovation through standards; they speed up development while assuring compliance; and they reduce cognitive load without restricting choice. Building such an in-house platform, or even deploying one, is far from easy, though. This book condenses a decade of building and rolling out platforms into practical advice for platform teams and users.5300+ happy readers! Also as Paperback edition

Learn databases from the bottom up by coding your own, in small steps, and with simple Go code (language agnostic).Atomicity & durability. A DB is more than files!Persist data with fsync.Crash recovery.KV store based on B-tree.Disk-based data structures.Space management with a free list.Relational DB on top of KV.Learn how tables and indexes are related to B-trees.SQL-like query language; parser & interpreter.Concurrent transactions with copy-on-write data structures.

The first book to combine Eventmodeling & Eventsourcing to plan software systems of any size and complexity. NEW CHAPTER "Dynamic Consistency Boundary" COMPANION ONLINE COURSE FOR FASTER LEARNING

Чому проєкт-цукерочка через рік перетворюється на непідтримуване пекло? Тому що вас ніколи не вчили базі. Ця книга — єдина система координат, яка нарешті збере ваші розрізнені знання про ООП, GRASP, SOLID та GoF в одну цілісну картину.

This book provides an introduction to the high-level concepts behind query engines and walks through all aspects of building a fully working SQL query engine in Kotlin.

Jetpack Compose is the future of Android UI. Master how it works internally and become a more efficient developer with it. You'll also find it valuable if you are not an Android dev. This book provides all the details to understand how the Compose compiler & runtime work, and how to create a client library using them. You could also be interested on the Jetpack Compose Internals course by Jorge Castillo. Find it in composeinternals.com

Residuality Theory is a new way to think about the design of software systems that explains why we experience design the way we do, why certain things seem to work only sporadically, and why certain architects get it right so often regardless of which tools they use. A new, scientific approach is defined that fuses Software Engineering, Complexity Science, and Philosophy to produce an entirely new way to think about how to design software. The result is a theoretical base that allows architecture to finally become its own discipline.

Most architecture books teach you how to design systems. This one teaches you how to become the person who designs them. This book covers everything the job actually requires: the mindset, the technical depth, the decisions, and the organizational and human dimensions that no purely technical book addresses.

Thirty-eight conversations from Dave Farley's Engineering Room podcast, now in book form. Kent Beck, Martin Fowler, Jez Humble, Nicole Forsgren, Eric Evans, Kelsey Hightower and many more talk candidly about what it really takes to build great software.

An introduction to philosophy for software engineers and architects that will help them understand their design process. This book helps to answer the question “Why are we like this?”.

A how-to field guide on building leak-free abstractions and algebraically designing real-world applications.
