Books you need to read to become professional Web Developer

5 replies
Hello everybody,

Need your help to choose a (or many) good and professional book about building websites. My interests are in learning HTML5, CSS, Javascript, PHP and MySQL (and any other stuff that I need to build professional websites)

I have some knowledge about HTML and CSS and want to extend it to professional level.

Thank you!

ps. When it comes to good books, money is not a problem

    I want to have a book so I can easily tell what I know and what I don't know. Found some good "for dummies" books, what do you think about that?

    I am a fan of reading books, and I love having books in my desk so I don't mind paying money. Even if it costs $200 or $300 .

    Also If you know some youtube channels that provide very high professional stuff, let me know.

    Thank you

    Steve Krug's Don't Make Me Think is one of my favourite books about web usability and design. That's not quite what you asked, but it's something you should know.

    I've had some O'Reilly books, but I'm not sure which ones any more. They're bit of hit and miss, so do check the reviews.

    Links in signature will not help your SEO. Not on this site, and not on any other forum.
    Who told me this? An ex Google web spam engineer.

    What's your excuse?
