When I went on the O’Reilly platform, I was astonished to find all the books there, plus live events and sandboxes so you could play around with the technology.I’ve been on the O’Reilly platform for more than eight years. I use a couple of learning platforms, but I'm on O'Reilly more than anybody else. When you're there, you start learning. I'm never disappointed.I'm always learning. So when I got on to O'Reilly, I was like a kid in a candy store. There are playlists. There are answers. There's on-demand training. It's worth its weight in gold, in terms of what it allows me to do.
The Rest
Many of the examples in this book contain a lot of code. I encourage you to type it out, make it our own, and build applications with the knowledge. But if you’re not interested in typing it out, you can download every bit of code at this book’s official website, http://www.therealtimebook.com. In many cases, the code available online is expanded in ways that are useful for development, more suitable for deployment, and better looking than the examples here.
The website has code samples available for download, but also has many of the applications ready to run and test out. So if you’re not interested in writing the application and getting it to run, you can follow along with the text and test the application online.
I view this book as realtime experience in its own way. Not only do I plan to keep the code updated, but I also plan to continue the conversation about these topics online through the website, Twitter, and any new service as it pops up. The official Twitter account for this book is @therealtimebook. There is a lot of content being created about this topic, and following it online will always be good way to keep up to date.
