Free book a day from Packt - until Jan 1st 2018
« on: December 17, 2017, 02:57:33 pm »
Packt is running a Christmas giveaway - a free book a day - of their choice.

But some good stuff might turn up. :)

https://www.packtpub.com/packt/offers/free-learning

Todays giveaway - is not bad "ASP.NET Core and Angular 2" - for creating "next gen" ASP websites using the .net Core

.Net Core is also what is used for Mac/Linux(like RasPi) stuff for some quick hacks.

They've been running that free book a day for a long time, I think my oldest free book from that page is Feb 2015.

I hope it doesn't end at Christmas, I've collected some useful books from there.

ahh - :) had not noticed - I used to consume a lot of Packt books but then they had a few issues with authors that kind of did not complete their works and I got tired of them for a while.  But as I'm trying to upgrade from C# 2 to C#7 some reading material was needed. :)

Well just as we spoke about it - Packt has disabled the free book a day

But replaced it with $5/book deals
