Read and Code Along!

Just click the button below. Phone, Tablet, Mac, Windows, Linux, Chromebook, as long as GitPod runs, you can learn how to code, anywhere!

GitPod is used to provide my readers with a zero-config developer environment where they can follow along even on a chromebook or tablet. It will also allow you to do things like learn mongodb,

For more content:

This book is still in early access and is designed to provide an interactive experiance through GitPod, Twitch , codetogether, gitduck and other means of activities that facilitate remote learning.

I plan to use Twitch as a way to go through the content of the book every week and collect feedback on it from viewer in fun, interactive ways.

The majority of the content in this repository is the refined version of the content found in OSS Books as begin to formalize everything for a legitimate chapter. I write my code snippets and notes and everything there before publishing it and bringing it over here.
