Deploying Docker into production is considered to be one of the major pain points in developing large-scale infrastructures, and the documentation available online leaves a lot to be desired. With this book, you will learn everything you wanted to know to effectively scale your deployments globally and build a resilient, scalable, and containerized cloud platform for your own use.The book starts by introducing you to the containerization ecosystem with some concrete and easy-to-digest examples; after that, you will delve into examples of launching multiple instances of the same container. From there, you will cover orchestration, multi-node setups, volumes, and almost every relevant component of this new approach to deploying services. Using intertwined approaches, the book will cover battle-tested tooling, or issues likely to be encountered in real-world scenarios, in detail. You will also learn about the other supporting components required for a true PaaS deployment and discover common options to tie the whole infrastructure together.At the end of the book, you learn to build a small, but functional, PaaS (to appreciate the power of the containerized service approach) and continue to explore real-world approaches to implementing even larger global-scale services.

Figma isn’t just a design tool; it’s the modern designer’s command centerŠimon Jun, COO at Dotidot, longtime Figma lecturer, and organizer of the Czech Friends of Figma community, built this book from the trenches of real product work. After years of untangling messy files, rescuing failing handoffs, and coaching teams at scale, he distilled what actually works into a practical, recipe-driven guide.Over time, Šimon saw the same problems show up again and again: bloated files, broken handoffs, and design systems that couldn’t scale. This book is his way of sharing the patterns, tools, and habits that helped teams move past those roadblocks and build stronger, more connected design processes in Figma.Inside, you’ll learn how to structure files for real collaboration, use design tokens without chaos, build accessible, scalable libraries, and hand off to developers with confidence. You’ll see how to automate repetitive work with plugins and AI, run async reviews, and bake feedback loops into your process so projects keep moving, without losing polish.*Email sign-up and proof of purchase required
