## Why this repository

Developers searching for **programming books**, **learning paths**, and **language-specific reading lists** often land on scattered links. This project is a single, maintained catalog:

- **32 programming languages** with beginner → advanced paths  
- **634+ curated titles** (Drive PDFs + official docs where useful)  
- A **searchable web library** so you can find a book by name in seconds  
- Clear contribution flow: suggest a title; maintainers attach Drive links

If this helps you learn, please **[star the repo](https://github.com/sx4im/programming-books-pdf)** — it helps more developers discover it on GitHub and in search.

---

## Quick start

1. **Use the live dashboard (recommended)**  
   Open **[Website](https://freecodebooks.vercel.app/)**  
   - Home: choose a **language shelf**  
   - That opens the [library](https://freecodebooks.vercel.app/library) for that language — search by book name, filter by level, click **Read book**

2. **Browse Markdown guides on GitHub**  
   Start from [`docs/`](docs/) (for example [Python](docs/python.md), [JavaScript](docs/javascript.md), [Rust](docs/rust.md)).

3. **Suggest a book**  
   Open a [book suggestion](.github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/book-suggestion.yml) with the **title only** (no links). Maintainers attach a valid Google Drive PDF.

4. **Run the app locally (optional)**  
   ```bash
   cd web && npm install && npm run dev
   ```

Each language guide is organized: **Beginner → Intermediate → Advanced → Specialized → References**.

## How the library works

1. Open [Website](https://freecodebooks.vercel.app/).
2. Select a **language shelf** on the home page.
3. On the library page, use **search** and **level filters** (no second language picker).
4. Click **Read book** to open the public Google Drive (or docs) link.

Source for the UI catalog: [`web/data/books.json`](web/data/books.json). Markdown mirrors live under [`docs/`](docs/).

**Project health:** See [NOTICE.md](NOTICE.md) for copyright / DMCA takedown handling so disputed links can be removed quickly.

## Who this is for

- Students building a **programming reading list** by language  
- Self-taught developers looking for **beginner to advanced** paths  
- Mentors and bootcamps that need a **shared book index**  
- Contributors who want to **suggest titles** without hunting for files

---

## FAQ

**Where is the live dashboard?**  
[Website](https://freecodebooks.vercel.app/) (library: [/library](https://freecodebooks.vercel.app/library)).

**Is this free / open source?**  
The repository is [MIT](LICENSE). Individual books keep their own copyright and publisher licenses — use legal sources in your region.

**Where are the PDFs?**  
Most titles use **public Google Drive** links maintained for this collection. This repo stores Markdown + the web catalog, not binary files in git.

**How do I suggest a book?**  
Open a [book suggestion issue](.github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/book-suggestion.yml) with the **title** (and author if known). **Do not submit links** — maintainers find the PDF and attach a valid Google Drive share.

**How do I add covers or authors in the app?**  
Edit [`web/data/books.json`](web/data/books.json) (`author`, `coverImage`). See [CONTRIBUTING.md](CONTRIBUTING.md).

**Broken link?**  
Open a [broken-link issue](.github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/broken-link.yml). Malicious links → [SECURITY.md](SECURITY.md).

**How is this different from free-programming-books?**  
[EbookFoundation/free-programming-books](https://github.com/EbookFoundation/free-programming-books) focuses on freely available books worldwide. This project adds **language + skill-level learning paths** and a **searchable library UI** at [Website](https://freecodebooks.vercel.app/).
