From a structural standpoint, the text creates a coherent ladder: definitions → examples → constraints → application. That’s why the ai arguments land. (Side note: if you like WebGPU+WGSL/Compute/Graphics All-In-One (Paperback), you’ll likely enjoy this too.)
Reviewer avatar
What surprised me: the advice doesn’t collapse under real constraints. The programming sections feel field-tested.
Reviewer avatar
I’m usually wary of hype, but JavaScript in 20 Minutes (Coffee Break Series) earns it. The ai chapters are concrete enough to test.
Reviewer avatar
I’ve already recommended it twice. The ai chapter alone is worth the price.
