Cristiano Ronaldo. Sportowi giganci
Mateusz Miga
Cechy szczególne? Błyszczący kolczyk w uchu, wyprostowana sylwetka, idealnie przystrzyżona fryzura i uśmiech od ucha do ucha. CRISTIANO RONALDO urodził się na odległej portugalskiej wyspie, a dzięki ciężkiej pracy i wytrwałości stał się jednym z najlepszych piłkarzy w historii, bożyszczem kibiców i mediów oraz kolekcjonerem futbolowych rekordów i prestiżowych tytułów. Z chuderlawego, nieco bezczelnego chłopaka przemienił się w boiskowego atletę, przebojowego przystojniaka-chojraka strzelającego kosmiczne bramki na największych stadionach świata. Życie CR7 to fantastyczna opowieść o talencie, pracy i bezkompromisowej walce o sukces. Jak to było – dowiesz się z tej książki. Sportowi giganci – nowy cykl książeczek dla dzieci o słynnych piłkarzach [SPORTOWA PÓŁKA]

Książka zbiera teksty różnego rodzaju: szkice przekrojowe o literaturze krajowej i emigracyjnej, portrety krytyczne (o Stanisławie Baczyńskim, Tymonie Terleckim, Jacku Łukasiewiczu, Andrzeju K. Waśkiewiczu, Stefanie Szymutce), wywiady (z Wojciechem Żukrowskim, Ireneuszem Opackim, Henrykiem Markiewiczem), a także laudacje wielkich poetów i pisarzy (Czesława Miłosza, Tadeusza Różewicza, Sławomira Mrożka, Wiesława Myśliwskiego). Jest spotkaniem z historycznoliteracką varietas, mierzy się z prywatyzowaną (osobistą) przeszłością lektury. Literatura wieku XX, widziana we fragmentach, strzępach czy odbiciach, staje się w ten sposób mapą możliwych peregrynacji i spotkań. Autor nie ukrywa, że istotą jego lektury jest poszukiwanie znaczeń ważnych niezależnie od czasu. Dlatego, łącząc twórców różnych pokoleń, szkół i poetyk, stara się ich zobaczyć we wspólnym doświadczaniu rzeczywistości i literatury. Jest to także książka osobista, ponieważ przywołuje wybitne postacie polskiej kultury literackiej, z którymi autor spotykał się lub prowadził z nimi poznawczy dialog.

Building and maintaining cross-platform desktop applications with native languages isn’t a trivial task. Since it’s hard to simulate on a foreign platform, packaging and distribution can be quite platform-specific and testing cross-platform apps is pretty complicated.In such scenarios, web technologies such as HTML5 and JavaScript can be your lifesaver. HTML5 desktop applications can be distributed across different platforms (Window, MacOS, and Linux) without any modifications to the code. The book starts with a walk-through on building a simple file explorer from scratch powered by NW.JS. So you will practice the most exciting features of bleeding edge CSS and JavaScript. In addition you will learn to use the desktop environment integration API, source code protection, packaging, and auto-updating with NW.JS.As the second application you will build a chat-system example implemented with Electron and React. While developing the chat app, you will get Photonkit. Next, you will create a screen capturer with NW.JS, React, and Redux. Finally, you will examine an RSS-reader built with TypeScript, React, Redux, and Electron. Generic UI components will be reused from the React MDL library. By the end of the book, you will have built four desktop apps. You will have covered everything from planning, designing, and development to the enhancement, testing, and delivery of these apps.
