Episode notes
Author Background And Credentials
- Alexandre has 17 years of software engineering experience across roles like engineering manager and architect.
- He is a five-time Microsoft MVP and the author of four .NET books.
Accept Scope Limits Early
- Decide early what to cut; you can't cover everything when writing about large topics like ASP.NET Core and front-end frameworks.
- Accept that a book won't solve all problems and use other resources to fill gaps.
Prefer Depth Over Breadth For Frameworks
- Focus on one JavaScript framework in future editions to go deeper rather than covering React, Angular, and Vue at surface level.
- Tailor the front-end choice to readers' needs and reduce book size to allow deeper integration examples.
