[ANN] New Book: Development Oriented Development

Hi Friends,

I'm quite happy to announce the initial release of my new LiveCode eBook. This is a companion book to the previous "LiveCode Advanced Application Architecture" eBook that dives further into making LiveCode IDE a comfortable place for your development workflow.

"Development Oriented Development" is a novel approach to coding with LiveCode that prioritizes developer comfort and robustness by favouring treating LiveCode as a mouldable environment. By the end of this book, you’ll know how and why to build custom plugins to make your development workflow easier, and how bespoke project-specific tools lead to software that is easier to maintain.

You can get the new book at: https://payhip.com/b/18eH

I look forward to feedback, suggestions, and requests for more chapters.
Cheers
Andre

Hi Andy,

I hope you like the book, but I have a firm impression that nothing that I mention there is new to you. :-) There is a brief case study about TinyIDE in it. :-)

Ha, you would be amazed about how much I do not know! For me it's usually the case of' I'm going to do this..hmm how do I do this? ..search the forums, write the answer down somewhere for the next time I forget how to do it. :)

Thanks for the inclusion of the case study for TinyIDE , that was a nice surprise 8)
