Software products, such as stand-alone programs, web apps and services, and mobile apps, have transformed our everyday life and work. There are tens of thousands of software product companies, and hundreds of thousands of software engineers are employed worldwide in software product development.
Contrary to what some people may think, engineering software products needs more than coding skills. So, I’ve written this book to introduce some of the software engineering activities that are important for the production of reliable and secure software products.
