I strongly suspect that this book is little more than LLM output, based both on the writing itself and the existence of https://github.com/AdrianMastronardi/bookwright. I find it despicable that the "author" did not disclose this.

Did I use AI agent to write it, YES. Is it just a little more that LLM output... I'm not the one to judge it.
