What People Are Saying About PeepCode
“PeepCode is awesome!” Tim O'Reilly, O'Reilly Media
“I suspect there are a lot of smart DF readers out there who know nothing about the Unix-y aspects of Mac OS X, would like to, but never found a good way to get started. This screencast is it.” John Gruber, Daring Fireball
“These things are fantastic and the price is a steal. I strongly urge you to support this effort and buy the episodes. What a terrific way to learn!” Scott Barron, Rails Core Committer
“All the PeepCode screencasts are nothing short of awesome. Reading is one thing, but learning from [your screencasts] is enabling me to learn new things and advance like never before.” Todd Boteler
“I wanted to catch up with functional programming, watched PeepCode's screencast on Clojure, best one so far (and I have seen them all)” wearecloud
