A true cookbook style, but lacks some of the depth I needed.
Great introductory book on basic Drupal 8 concepts and how to use them, but the subject matter is so deep the cookbook style doesn't give enough depth of understanding. Yes, I see I have to create three files in these directories but I don't understand why and if I want to alter to recipe to be something different, how do I do that? It's exactly what it says it is, I should have skimmed the TOCs to see if there was a specific mention of the topic I needed help with. Drupal 8 is radically different than Drupal 7 and a cookbook isn't going to give you the understanding of how to move from one style to another.
