2021 Tech Reading List

2021 Technical Reading List

Title Description Reason for Choice
The Pragmatic Programmer: Your Journey To Mastery, 20th Anniversary Edition The updated edition of one of the most influential books ever written about being a good programmer. Heavy on principles and lighter on code. Seems like a good introduction to the year... and it's the book that gave me this idea.
Design Patterns: Elements of Reusable Object-Oriented Software The classic OO design patterns text. I've read this one piecemeal, but want to cover all the patterns in one fell swoop. I also want to get more familiar with UML and similar diagramming techniques.
Forge Your Future with Open Source: Build Your Skills. Build Your Network. Build the Future of Technology. Looks like a good how-to for open source project development. I've long had an interest in getting involved with open source projects, but I've found it to be a bit difficult. This book looks like a good orientation.
Java By Comparison: Become a Java Craftsman in 70 Examples Purported to be one of the best Java Style books out there. I'd like to have a review of Java, and this book seems like the one to do it.
