Hey congratulations ! Funny enough, I had offers to write a book on WebAssembly, almost 2 years ago, after writing an article[1] on that topic that somehow ranked #1 on HN for a day :) Had to decline but never doubted someone more experienced would write one!

What’s there to test? It’s a book. You just read it.

#25Looks great. I would definitely buy this if there was an option for a printed book.

#26Earlier quoted context omitted.
Seems like it's in the same price range as a lot of other similar books and courses. Authority and Marketing for Developers are two that spring to mind. I'm sure if you subscribe to his mailing list there'll be some sort of sale on at some point.
Yes that's right! I did base my pricing on books like Authority
Any discount for students?

#27That's a really expensive (and I can afford it). How did you figure out these prices?
The pricing is in tiers. Just the book is $29.

#28Just picked up the “complete edition”. Really looking forward to going through it all. This looks great!

Re: Show HN: I wrote a book about WebAssembly
#30Honest feedback: Pricing is high.
Also, to me, this doesn't look like a good way to use Show HN. A link to Amazon wouldn't be different than what you just did.
