Introduction to Software Development

<p>There's more to creating software than writing code. This volume provides an overview of the most important processes and tools that a software developer uses on a regular basis. Unlike the core programming concepts presented in the first volume processes and tools change at a rapid pace. To mitigate this the concepts behind each process are emphasized so that the reader gains the knowledge that will help him or her to easily adapt to newer tools. For example the chapter on source control emphasizes the essential concepts underlying source control over the specific tools presented in the chapter. As with the rest of the series every example in this book is meant for the reader to follow along and learn by doing.</p><p></p>
