Appendix A. Further Resources
There are many code snippets throughout this book, and they are presented to illustrate a point or a technique. Some of the apps can be reconstructed from the snippets given, but it may be easier to pick up the code for each of the completed apps from the companion GitHub repository.

When opened in GitHub, it will show the URL of the script (Figure A-4 ...
