I bought your book. I am just starting out as a backend developer. Titles like these are badly needed. But your book needs a lot more polish. There were typos in a lot of places. Also it would have been great if you could cover Ubuntu. It's a lot of effort to map fedora commands to that.
Finally, compared to what you are charging for your book, The Unix and Linux System Administrator's Handbook costs 60 USD, covers way more, in better detail, and has much better presentation. The advantage your product should have is much more focus on backend deployments but it falls short in the quality of coverage and by extension, ease of use (for newbs).
- strzibny 4y agoThank you for your feedback. I don't want to compare myself to a 1232 pages-long book. I am sorry you found some typos, the book will certainly get more polish and updates (I include lifetime updates in the price). My price is $50 because it's not just book. There are demonstrations that you can run and that can save you way more money than $50. I am considering a PDF-only offer for less. If you have some specific suggestions for me I welcome your feedback. You can write me an email or DM me at @strzibnyj on Twitter.
- fellellor 4y agoMy intention for bringing that book wasn't to say there are more pages. In fact I like that your book has less pages and more focused. I was comparing the typesetting, nicer fonts and such. Some pictures are always nice. Thanks for writing the book, and I hope you would keep improving it.
