Re:Show HN: An e-book about integrating front end libraries by daok on Monday July 14, 2014 @01:25PM (#8032014)
I check rapidly the free sample and I found the use of Laravel framework to be irrelevant. All examples could have been done with simple Html and others front-end libraries. It will confuse novice people. Should have just focused on front end.

Thanks for the feedback! The purpose of the book is to feature complete integration of various libraries and frameworks with a backend. Laravel is chosen as an example framework so that the developer can have a complete solution instead of just some theory.

In the prerequisites to the book it clearly states that novice developers will have a hard time unless they have some backend experience.

I like the approach you have taken, GP is wrong.

Seeing the integration with a back end (any backend tbh) is better.
