About the Book
So you want to be a better programmer? Good. Regardless if programming is a hobby or your livelihood, becoming a better one is beneficial to both your skill and your brain's programmers mindset. Continuing to improve any skill set is a noble endeavor and I'm glad that you've taken a step towards that goal. Hopefully, I can help guide you on your path to programming awesomeness by giving you some ideas on things you can do both in your spare time or on the job.
In this book, I will give you some direction on how you can become a better programmer. This book strives for breadth over depth and will work to give you ten ideas on things you can add to your knowledge, or things to try that will help make you a better programmer. Each of the ideas will cover the high level concepts of that idea, and bring to light why doing that particular thing will make you a better developer, and then provide links to resources so that you can dive deeper into a paticular idea on your own.
Are these the only ways to become a better programmer? No. But the ideas presented here will definitely improve your ability to understand and write quality code.
