I'm really looking forward to going through all the content and building new products with it. I've been following Steve and Adam for the last few months and I've been really excited about every insight.
Pros:the quality of this stuff is extremly awesome
Cons:could have come earlier :D

Though this book has been made specially for developers but I recommend this for all the existing fellow designers. I suspect that not all the designers know all those tactics well. I also do/did some of the tactics mentioned in this book as always with my design experience without knowing the actual reasons behind them. This is a must.
Pros:Best book for making decisions about user interface and making the flow for better user experience. You can read it in one sit, awesome.
Cons:Only 3 video case study (re-design). According to the price, I expected 15-20 video case studies (before-after) along with mobile version.

I have been looking forward to this for weeks and just bought it for my team this morning. The content quality is top-notch, and all the examples are actionable.
The package is solid - PDF book, videos, and even an icon pack.
Combined with Tailwind CSS, this is my go-to design resource from now on.
The only thing I wish is that there was an HTML version of the book so that the examples could be inspected in Devtools.
Pros:Practical examples
Cons:Every new web app will now look like it was designed by Adam and Steve
