I absolutely loved this book, so well-written and and such a nice print. I have decent amount of experience with other programming/scripting languages but I was a complete beginner in web development with zero knowledge of html and css. This book was an excellent start for learning both. The only small issue is that it was written when html5 was under development and although it covers many of the html5 features, the core of the book is not html5, especially with extensively covering subjects like flash videos. That is why an update would help a lot.

Excellent book for any skill-level, but essential to all beginners! The content is laid out in a very fun fashionable way that will hold the reader's interest.

The paper quality and design is bar-none a graphical artist's dream. HOWEVER...

I bought this as I'm in the process of preparing to transition in my career back to being a front-end or full-stack developer -- after about 15 years away from it.

The book itself is well-produced -- full color printing throughout, and well-organized ..

I was very nervous about taking a class in this stuff, because I am brand new to the subject, and I don't learn new things very easily. My college professor's lectures are nothing but jargon and nonsense, and I am lucky to get anything out of them. This book, however, explains everything in such a simple, organized way that I am able to use everything in it immediately.

About the Author

 Goals for this Book 
 

Programming books can often look rather intimidating and uninspiring, but they do not need to be. We wanted to redesign the tech book and make it more accessible, relevant, and attractive to a whole new group of readers. The result is a book that feels more like a magazine and is enjoyable to flick through, and looks like it belongs in the graphic design section rather than the programming section of a bookstore.
