Looks great! Seems there were some issues in conversion into HTML chapter titles. For example https://www.practical-go-lessons.com/chap-31-logging#log.fat...
Thanks for your feedback I will fix this :)

#14The book looks very interesting! In the section about logging, Logrus is unfortunately in maintenance mode now. We've used it at my place, now we have switched to Zap.

#15Nice! What were the tools you used to write it and convert it to the ebook and paper versions?

#16Hi maximilienandi, great work! Easy to read for non-native!
Always nice to see more alternative to the Blue Book too ;)
When I open Golang books or any kind of tutorials, I usually jump into Concurrency sections to see its depth and quality ...
If ever start thinking of selling v2 of your book, please go through Katherine Cox-Buday book "Concurrency in Go" content.
I like Katherine but your writing style is much much easy to read and process. Wish half of Katherine content will migrate into your future works.
Adding reference on Katherine book might help others too.

Thanks,
I worte the book using Lyx (https://www.lyx.org/) Each chapter is a Lyx document.
Then I converted : Lyx to LaTeX, then LaTeX doc are converted to HTML with pandoc (https://pandoc.org/).
Then I have an homemade script to generate Vue Components.
Lyx and Pandoc are great tools !

Thanks for your feedback ! I will add a warning in the book concerning Logrus.
I will also check Zap to add an example :)

#20Always assume Go references are about the board game, always disappointed. Congrats on the book!
