Looking forward to seeing it complete! I got into programming languages after reading Game programming patterns, and I'm absolutely hooked. When I saw you were working on this book I worked through the first half of it in a week using JS, loved it.
I started the second half in Rust about a week ago, I don't have enough vacation days to work through it at the pace I did the first half. Finding it a bit harder so far, but I think that's just because I'm still new at Rust.
You may have already mentioned this but will you be publishing a physical copy when your done? I'd love to get one for the shelf.

Just like with "Game Programming Patterns", once the chapters are done, I'll put together a print edition, eBook, Kindle, etc. Based on the length, I may end up doing it as two separate volumes, which is crazy to think about.
- Technetium_Hat 7y agoIf it is to be 2 separate volumes, would the first volume, ie jlox, be ready to publish already?
- munificent 7y agoIt's written, but there's still a lot of work to publish it: copy-editing, page layout, cover design, etc. I don't want to get distracted by that until all of the chapters are done.
