70k words, 600+ illustrations, and 1000s of hours (so far).
Making Software is now available in early access. https://www.makingsoftware.com/early-access
Many users praised the exceptional quality and craftsmanship of DanHollick's 'Making Software' technical guide and bought it to support the early access launch.
There's also an illustration course, if you've ever wanted to know how I make them.
@DanHollick @disco_lu 🔥
There are two versions. Essentially the Advanced Edition is a way for me to fund all the work that goes into a print version.
But don't worry, there are more free chapters coming soon if you're not in a position (or don't want to) buy it.
There's no PPP at the moment, but hoping to add that after the rest of the content is finished.
@joshpuckett That's extremely kind of you to say Josh!
@DanHollick thanks for this Dan! can't wait to dive in
@DanHollick amazing
@DanHollick legendary.
There are a lot of useless collections of content for sale out there, but I wish more people understood the love and care that goes into the great ones like yours!
@DanHollick congrats Dan :) so inspiring
@DanHollick This is the most amazing thing I have got hands on!!
@DanHollick It's rare to come across work of this quality these days, major inspiration!

@DanHollick maybe fix the english?
@DanHollick these sounds are immaculate
@DanHollick The dedication is impressive Dan. Congrats on the launch!
@DanHollick ex-motion-designer so the 600+ illustrations is the number that would break me. put ~6 weeks into visuals for 40 screens on pennywise and nearly scrapped the whole thing. did the per-illustration time get faster as you went or stay brutal throughout?
@mds @disco_lu Bummer how that license is wrapping haha
@raunofreiberg Thanks man, means a lot from you.
@DanHollick is there a plan for physical or not so much?
@DanHollick Bought advanced but can't log in 😢
