PragProg

Dave and Andy founded the The Pragmatic Bookshelf with a simple goal: to improve the lives of software developers. We create timely, practical books, audio books and videos on both classic and cutting-edge topics to help you learn new things you don’t know and get better at the things you do.

Software development is not just technical, so we also create content about teams, management, and how to stay healthy in what can be a stressful environment.

We’re not a big corporation. We’re a small group of experienced professionals committed to helping make software development easier.

Our titles do not contain any Digital Restrictions Management, and have always been DRM-free; we pioneered the “beta book” concept. We’re here to make your life easier.

The Pragmatic Bookshelf publishing imprint is wholly owned by The Pragmatic Programmers, LLC.
