>1. Modern web applications: a overview
An overview, please. Sorry to nitpick grammar, but seeing that in an early header leaves a bad impression.
- manojlds 14y agoCan't believe something like that creates bad impression in tech materials, but I have always been surprised with myself about how my impression changed due to grammatical mistakes.
- jere 14y agoI wouldn't avoid the book because of that, but I don't know about others. Such mistakes might make one think the author is uneducated, sloppy, or both. In a free ebook and with english as a second language (guessing that is the case), it's totally excusable.
- rhizome 14y agoIt has to do with attention to detail, and for me it raises the possibility that I can't trust the technical aspects of the writing. For sure that's a grammar-bigotry on my part, I'm not proud, but I simply look askance a bit after seeing that kind of thing.
- dgesang 14y agoDon't be ashamed for being right.
- IznastY 14y agoNotice the table of contents makes use of 'an overview' instead of 'a overview'. May have been just a simple mistake.
