  • vastav9
    Very good resource
    Everything is discussed in detailed. It's very informative for beginners like me. Right from beginning where they explained how small bit maps can bloat in memory(it actually helped me to troubleshoot an issue for my colleague), it helped me to learn stuff better. And also Liked donn's email series on how to be a world class developer.
