O’Reilly covers everything we've got, with content to help us build a world-class technology community, upgrade the capabilities and competencies of our teams, and improve overall team performance as well as their engagement.
I wanted to learn C and C++, but it didn't click for me until I picked up an O'Reilly book. 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.
Summary
We’re off to a good start. We have Grails installed. Our project requirements are clear and achievable. Our new application is prepped, ready, and running.
In the next chapter, we’ll begin our first development iteration. To get ourselves acclimated, we’ll reach for some low-hanging fruit and work on the first three features on our list. At the end of Chapter 3, we will be able to create, display, and edit an event.
