Reviews
“The book is written for programmers, who have already some experience. Once you know what is a if-clause, array or how to make a simple HTML page, you are on the level of the book and you would be really happy to see what it has to offer. … I liked the book and I learned from it.” (Vitosh Academy, vitoshacademy.com, April, 2016)
