"Speaking of print, you can pre-order a dead tree version of the book from NoStarch Press. The contents are identical, but you get a nice physical book to put on a shelf, or a beautifully typeset PDF. Proceeds are going to charity."

Which charity/charities?

Black Girls Code is the intention today, but originally it was going to be a different tech charity that is no longer around, OpenHatch.
Black Girls Code, in my opinion, is a great organization with a well executed mission and good reach (several major cities throughout the US). Glad Rust picked them.

I have only heard wonderful things; I'm glad your experience is consistent :)

I have no idea how big the donations will be, but we're giving it a shot!
