This repository is a reading library, not a prescribed curriculum. Start with one fundamentals title, build something small, then use the specialist sections when a project gives you a reason to go deeper.
Suggestions, corrections, and new legally redistributable resources are welcome. Please read CONTRIBUTING.md before opening a pull request; it documents the selection criteria, directory rules, and filename conventions.
Community participation is governed by our Code of Conduct.
The Unlicense covers original repository materials such as its documentation and artwork. It does not relicense third-party books. Each book remains subject to the rights and terms set by its author and publisher.
If you are a rights holder and believe material should not be hosted here, please open a removal request with the title and supporting details so the maintainers can review it promptly.
