Northwind Elixir Traders (PragProg)

Hello @jordan0day, thank you for buying the book – and for appreciating the ethos!

I have reported this to Leanpub, where the PDF and ePub files originate; their ePub export is sub-par, which is weird for a website that deals with books as its main focus… It could also be that the file is rather large (besides the cover image) – on my Android and ReadEra it takes a few seconds to load, but pages load instantly when leafing through it.

I just tried this though: I converted the original ePub file with Calibre to ePub again and I don’t know what it did besides making the cover lower-resolution, but the exported file is faster to load and leaf through.

The asciidoctor port will happen within 2025, but I’m currently busy with Phoenix Product Codex and a yet-unreleased book on an API client that I need urgently for a project.

I’ve had two readers report one minor typo each, so I’ll be releasing a new version and errata within August.
