"Why don't I just use WordPress?"

It's no secret that programming requires a lot of work. You have plenty of things to manage, too. Your work has deadlines, bosses, clients, prospects, you name it. As a WordPress developer (or any developer, really), it's hard to catch a break.

Meanwhile, the tools and technologies you use are always changing. The tech world isn't going to stop. There's React, Sass, Vagrant, APIs, just to name a few. And that doesn't even touch the server-side of our work. It's a full time job just staying ahead.

This leaves you with little time to learn advanced programming concepts like full-stack development. It doesn't help that that stuff is hard even if there's plenty of tutorials out there.

Most of those tutorials suck too

You've probably read some of them already. They talk about dogs and cars. When's the last time you coded a car? That's not how the real world works. Where are those practical examples that you can use at work or on your personal project?

So you end up with the same result. The whole thing makes no sense to you! You end up telling yourself it's not useful or worth the trouble.

There's plenty of reasons to learn full-stack development

Whether it's to make more money, save time or just to build expertise so you can move on to something else in your career, full-stack development is worth your time.

It's just that full-stack development isn't easy.

But, if you're ready to really get started with full-stack development, look no further. You've found the right resource to help you with that.

Testimonials

Shane has a zest for teaching that is a joy to experience. With his depth of knowledge and experience, he breaks down complex topics in a manner that's both encouraging and inviting. If you want to increase the quality of your presentations, this book is a must-read.

Tae Nguyen

I love learning from Shane. He has a command of some very advanced topics and always gets into how things work and why certain approaches might be better than others. Top notch!

JP Blake

Shane is a fantastic instructor. He breaks things down in a way that no matter what your skill set is, you can understand. When presenting in person, he breaks often and allows for questions to ensure that people are able to follow along and not get lost in the deep content he is sharing. He is able to explain very complex topics easily.

I wish that this book had existed when I first got serious about public speaking. What I did have was Shane's blog, his post about of words per minute was my introduction to the subleties of delivery and the importance of understanding pacing and giving a smoother delivery.
