@hnasr I just bought it, and I hope it lives up to my expectations. I’m familiar with Hussein Nasser from his YouTube channel. Sometimes, he goes into a long description for something already clear. Thanks for the book!

A few thoughts that I would like to share:
- You’re allowed to stop being in touch with what brings you pain.

The API design style determines how your apps talk to each other.

Choosing the right API can have a big effect on how well, quickly, and reliably an application works.

I interviewed over 50 full-stack engineers in the last 2 years.

I created a Notion based "Learn Full-Stack Development Pack" that contains a learning path to become a full-stack dev based on free resources.

Retweet and reply with "free" and I'll DM it to you.
