Show HN: Cloud Native Web Development – I self-published my first book

9 pointsby mikeniklesalmost 5 years ago
Hi,<p>I spent the last three months writing a 200+ page book, with 19 corresponding pull requests.<p>https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.mikenikles.com&#x2F;cloud-native-web-development<p>It&#x27;s a hands-on guidebook on how to develop a cloud-native web application based on technologies I am familiar with. Svelte, Tailwind CSS, Cypress.io, Gitpod.io, Firebase &amp; Google Cloud at a high-level.<p>The goal was to walk through the entire end-to-end process, from zero to production! It walks through building a foundation needed to develop on top of. CI &#x2F; CD, testing, feature toggles, production monitoring, etc.<p>To write it, I used Google Docs and had two git repositories: one to experiment and one that contains the final source code - where the git commit history looks like I never struggled :-).<p>AMA on self-publishing or the book&#x27;s topic itself!

Well done! It’s not easy writing a book and it really tests your knowledge more than just doing the thing. I say that having written a crappy 20 pager!<p>Anyway was that 3months full time or part time?<p>What are your marketing plans? I hope it pays off financially too. I think you are on trend so there would be demand.
