Every so often, someone very nice who is walking ahead of you on the Startup Path will pass along information that can save you much pain.
Ka Wai Cheung, of Chicago-based web development shop We Are Mammoth is one such guy, and his new free ebook can save you from making more mistakes than you ever thought possible.
The Developer’s <code> is 50 lessons Ka Wai has learned over the past ten years, building sites and web apps. It’s an opinionated approach to how to create an app – “opinionated” like in Ruby on Rails, not just some guy (me) sprouting off.
Here’s how these pithy, short and useful lessons are grouped:
- Home
- Table of Contents
- Introduction
- Metaphor
- Motivation
- Productivity
- Automation
- Complexity
- Teaching
- Clients
- Pride
Check it out.













Thanks for sharing that! I especially liked his thoughts on automation and code generation.
