Good intro books
These are really good intro books for html/cssJavaScript and Jquery for web development. I really enjoyed these books and liked the design of the books, and the fact that everything is on black pages. They do a good job of explaining things and giving you examples, where you can also follow along by coding.

GREAT for beginners!! Easy to understand, Fun to look at! PLUS online examples to download!
Awesome beginning learning tool for people who are new to programming like I am (AND its gorgeous to look at!!)This book doesnt jump right into syntax with pages and pages of text like a lot of books do. It breaks everything down into concepts that are easy to grasp and even adds little notes for questions that I am likely to ask right then and there! Plus the page content layout makes learning bits of information SOOOOO much more fun.Yes there are a few cons to this book, but the content and delivery outshines them by far, so Im giving it a full 5 stars anyway.PROS*Excellent learning tool (When I say excellent, I mean THAT good!)*Makes concepts way easier than any “idiot’s guide”*Fun to read!! Colloquial speech and not filled with techy talk that makes half sense.*Lots of great examples*Thoughtful tidbits that seem to read your mind’s questions*Breaks things down conceptually right from the start. It reads like a catalog. Its so easy*Stunning design! A++++*Directs you to TONS of downloadable examples that you can open in your browserCONS*Text melts off the page with oil, sweat*Binding is hard to open (Hence the other review about getting them spiral bounded = plus)*Not good reference book for experienced*Matte cover is gorgeous but prone to fingerprints*Bit outdated

This is the one to get…These books provide the clearest, quickest way to learn web development
I was taking an online course and some of the concepts were confusing. This book saved me. The author has a real gift for explaining things clearly and succinctly, with appropriate examples. It’s not a book for “dummies”, so don’t expect a lot of chatty banter (like in the Heads First books), but you really don’t need to read through 700 pages of wordy prose to learn to code. Most concepts are easily explained in a paragraph or two, a large colorful illustration, and a few clear examples, that you can play with on your own (all code examples are downloadable). Also serves well as a reference source.The large colorful pages make the book a delight to read and easy to digest (never buy a programming book that is just black and white; color adds a lot). The format may at first seem “sparse”, as many pages just have illustrations of code with a paragraph or two to explain things, but it turns out this is a quick and effective way to learn.You can stop looking at other books on the subject. This is the one to get.

What a difference!
This set of books is an example of how good design can make for exceptional communication and learning. Instead of massive blocks of text that run on across several pages, each important concept gets its own two-page spread so you don’t have to flip back and forth between pages. Everything from the organization of topics, to the color choices, images, and white space is used to convey coding concepts clearly and concisely. Even fans of design would be surprised by how much a difference this presentation makes in learning.I do come from some coding background, so I don’t know if I would have found the information harder to absorb if I was starting fresh. It would be nice if the books had more coding exercises or challenges. At the moment I just regurgitate the code provided. As a reference the books have made things a lot clearer for me though. Also, I have had issues with the binding of my JavaScript book. Entire sections are falling out and I am afraid of losing individual pages. The HTML/CSS book is fine.Despite the disappointing quality of the binding, this is overall a worthwhile investment. I will be keeping these books and getting rid of other coding books on my shelf.

Overall, a great learning experience
Positives:I’ve found these books to be an easy and enjoyable way to learn about the topics. Just a really great learning experience. I have not yet started the JavaScript section, so I may update as necessary.So far, there have been no problems with the books’ bindings separating. Hopefully this issue has been resolved, but I have been treating the books with a little more care, since I had read other reviews before purchasing.Negatives:In some places the book fails to provide a good size / contrast / font choice to make the text easily readable. This is a little surprising for a book that, advocates not making this mistake on a website. Sometimes, the font is too fine to read easily and/or color contrast is inadequate. Not everywhere, but enough to be annoying. Have a magnifying glass handy, unless you have perfect vision and a perfectly lit environment.Also, the pages do smear fairly easily if you have any oils on your hands. To me, this is a valid tradeoff, as I do think the vivid colors make for a great user experience. It must have taken at least 10x the amount of ink to create these books when compared to normal computer books, but I think this sets these books apart and makes learning more enjoyable.My ConclusionWithout the previously listed issues the books would be pretty perfect. The manner in which the info is presented is really well organized and executed and I feel I have learned the info quickly due to the superior presentation style of the author. There was just enough repetition of the key points to set the info permanently in my mind. Even with their flaws, I give the books top rating as it’s a pretty terrific way to learn about these topics.Overall, I feel purchasing the books was a great investment that has helped me to learn the subjects quickly, enjoyably and easily.

Obra que entrega o que promete: Uma visão geral de tecnologias para desenvolvimento web, cobrindo HTML, CSS, JavaScript e jQuery.Para iniciantes é excelente pois cobre aspectos básicos dessas tecnologias e fornece inúmeros exemplos práticos que ajudam a assimilar o conteúdo.Para experientes/profissionais pode ser um pouco maçante, principalmente no início das partes que cobrem cada tópico maior (ex. CSS). Apesar disso, a leitura atenta da obra possibilitará o refinamento dos conceitos e o aprendizado de alguns aspectos peculiares.Minha única crítica vai para algumas páginas contendo somente figuras que, apesar de tornarem a obra atraente visualmente, poderiam facilmente ser retiradas do livro sem comprometer o conteúdo global.
