As my expedition in the world of web development (especially client side web development) continued and my
JavaScript and HTML code base grew, I discovered that I wanted a JavaScript framework to support me.
After some research about Angular, KnockOut, React and Vue.js I finally decided for Vue.
Even though the Vue.js online documentation is really great and gave me a good and quick start I later decided
to look for a book to gain an even better foundation. I finally selected
Vue.js 2 Cookbook

After having spent the recent weeks and months getting deeper into web development and especially into full
stack MicroServices (including non-monolith front-ends) I realized that it is time to read a book about
“client side development” in general to get a stronger foundation on state of the art development setups.

Since a while now I am interested in MicroServices architectures, their benefits and how to implement them.
Recently I came across .NET Microservices: Architecture for Containerized .NET Applications
in The week in .Net and immediate read it.
Overall I think it is a really good book about the topic! Of course it focuses on Microsoft technologies
but that’s okay as this is anyway my primary playground ;-) The ~300 pages gave me quite good and “deep enough”
overview about the topics below and I really wonder whether I would need another book at all. And this one
is for free!

Recently I read in The week in .Net about some new
e-books published by Microsoft about web, cloud and container development and one of these books was
Architecting Modern Web Applications with ASP.NET Core and Azure.
After I have read it I can say it is a rather small book which gives you a good but very basic overview
about ASP.Net Core MVC development.

Bootstrap to the rescue! With Bootstrap you don’t need to be a web designer to give your web sites a
professional look and feel.

In order to get my hands even dirtier with Web technologies I wanted to read more about Html5, JavaScript and
jQuery. And so I came across this book:
A Software Engineer Learns HTML5, JavaScript and jQuery

Although being a professional software engineer for more then 15 years now, I never really dived into Web
development. That has changed recently. After having played around a little bit with pure HTML and some
Asp.Net WebForms I realized that I should build up some solid foundation in order to be able to build
maintainable and modern Web applications.
So I decided to read this book:
Pro ASP.NET MVC 5

Even though I am working with Indian colleagues for some years now I only recently realized that I still don’t
know enough about the Indian culture in order to be able to understand certain motivation and behavior.
A quick search on Amazon discovered this small book:
