@nelsonic Yes, please! Email [email protected]

[ScriptyBooks @scriptybooks]

@nelsonic Agreed! Have also heard from reader who likes to keep e-ink tech books open alongside all day while working. PDF companion likely.

[ScriptyBooks @scriptybooks]

@nelsonic No deadtree version available. :(
It's online, interactive only!

Backbone + CoffeeScript interactive book now updated to Backbone 1.0.0 and CoffeeScript 1.6.1
Expanded text and github repo soon to follow.

[ScriptyBooks @scriptybooks]

A long-overdue discussion of Backbone extends vs CoffeeScript classes has been added to the Models chapter of Backbone + CoffeeScript

[ScriptyBooks @scriptybooks]

Backbone + CoffeeScript will be updated to Backbone version 0.9.9, and expanded to cover the new features.

[ScriptyBooks @scriptybooks]

@lovecankill Should be fixed now, can you try signing in?

[ScriptyBooks @scriptybooks]

@lovecankill Thank you, looking into the issue now.

[ScriptyBooks @scriptybooks]

@justhamade So sorry for the long delay. I plan to finalize the examples and push to GitHub this month!

[ScriptyBooks @scriptybooks]

@dylanrw Plans are for even more features that depend on browser, so PDF version very unlikely. Browser-based offline mode on the list.

[ScriptyBooks @scriptybooks]

@tehviking Glad to hear the Backbone + CoffeeScript book provides value as a reference.
Working today on pushing examples to GitHub repo.

[ScriptyBooks @scriptybooks]

"Booyah Baby" -- Great to see stoked readers submitting messages like this to the sample app in the free Backbone + CoffeeScript Quick Tour.

[ScriptyBooks @scriptybooks]

@caiobianchi1 It's online-only b/c of the runnable examples and API interaction. Does that work for you? If not, no problem to refund.

[ScriptyBooks @scriptybooks]

New dropdown menu on the embedded CoffeeScript editors' Run button:
"Revert to original" and "Show compiled JavaScript".
Try them!

[ScriptyBooks @scriptybooks]

@neokain So glad to hear it is helping you!

[ScriptyBooks @scriptybooks]

@neokain Thanks for buying. If you feel you can't get the value you need due to the online-only format, please let me refund you!

[ScriptyBooks @scriptybooks]

@neokain The book is online only, no epub version is planned. The reason is the editable, runnable code examples, which use the live API.
