A simple developer's journey

Remember last week, I presented the website https://leanpub.com/ One interesting & free book recently published is https://leanpub.com/cleancsharp/ . You will find in there a lot of good tips to write clean C# code. Some tips are really useful. If the professional applications I work on would have be written by people who have read this book, my life would be easier! It is only question of "good sense" in my opinion, plus a set of established rules, like proven efficiency stuff. But I have to say that most of them are not applied, even in "top" french companies.

I would like to share with you a platform I found few weeks ago. I've already mentionned SyncFusion ebooks in an earlier post ( http://kampeki-factory.blogspot.fr/2015/03/syncfusion-free-eboks.html) . Notice that they still add free books regulary. The platform I discovered is called Leanpub ( https://leanpub.com/ ). As an author, you can propose your book, writen using your favorite tool. They are doing the publication in different formats (pdf, iPad, kindle...) on their side. An other interesting thing is that you set the price. In fact, you set two prices: the first one the is minimum price, and the second one is a suggested price. As a reader, you are informed of those two prices. You can pay the minimum price (which can be 0$). Or you can follow the author advice and give him the price he thinks his book is really.

Don't wait anymore! Here is a list of kick starters books covering various subjects (Xamarin, Machine Learning, R, AngularJS...): https://www.syncfusion.com/resources/techportal/ebooks Don't hesitate to dowload, it is free!
