New page

[[SafariOnline]] now hosts [[TheAPIBook]]. No more warez downloads!?

I had a presentation for my colleagues about [[GraalVM]]. [[GraalVM]] is about [[speed]], but also about [[API]]s. As a consequence some of my colleagues asked, why [[TheAPIBook]] isn't available for [[Oracle]] at https://my.safaribooksonline.com/ - I didn't know, but was curious to find out as well. I sent a note back in April to [[Apress]]. Why my '''Practical API Design''' is not being available on Safari? This week I've got an answer:

The reason it had not been available is because at the time the book published, we were not sending regular feeds to Safari. It was also at a time that pre-dates ePUBs being created as a part of our standard workflow (ePUBs are what [[SafariOnline]] requires). We had to create an ePUB from the existing PDF version of the eBook.

In short: [[TheAPIBook]] is now live on the https://my.safaribooksonline.com/
