Code Bright es el sucesor espiritual de Code Happy. El framework ha crecido mucho en el pasado año y ha cambiado lo suficiente como para necesitar otro título. Con Code Bright Dayle espera mejorar Code Happy todo lo posible. Su meta es, una vez más, crear la mejor experiencia de aprendizaje para el framework. Oh, y seguir siendo gracioso. Eso es muy importante para él. Code Bright contiene una experiencia de aprendizaje completa para todas las características del framework. El estilo de escritura hará que sea cercano a los novatos, y una maravillosa referencia para programadores experimentados también. Code Bright es el sucesor de Code Happy, que vendió casi 3000 copias en su versión en Inglés y casi 300 en castellano. Fue considerado uno de los recursos de aprendizaje estrellas del framework de Laravel.
Awesome book for the beginners of Laravel. Really detailed (sometimes even too detailed) description of the main functions with explaining not only how it works but why is it designed the way it is.
The style of the book is tricky, though - a lot of "carried away" moments and personal opinions, sometimes it feels like the author is talking to us as to children, but that was intentional, I suppose.
Lastly, if you have created at least one project with Laravel and want to get deeper knowledge - this book is not for you, it's mostly for beginners.
As good as this book might be its style is as if had been written by a 14-year old to 12-year old mates.
I have to confess I have written a book on programming myself which had kind-of the same style. It was addressed to 12-14 year old kids and I wrote it in 1988. Today I would not use the same style even for the same age group. This guy is writing in the same style for grown ups.
Good book about Laravel for beginners. If you already have created some projects with Laravel - skip this book. The worst thing about the book is that I needed to skip some places just because of the writing style (author tries to be funny and tell some "funny" stories).
If you're having troubles with Laravel's documentation in understanding anything, it is a good source of additional information. The author is as crazy as hell. 5 stars
