This book guides you through practical examples of each of the technologies covered by the exam while exposing you to the settings and interactions between platform solutions that you will need to be in command of to prepare for the exam and to use on your job in Azure development. Chapters in this book correspond directly to the exam skills outline and are delivered in a “from-the-ground-up” approach, allowing you to build your knowledge as you go. This approach serves to help even novice developers get up to speed quickly, while allowing more experienced developers to find the exact topics and scenarios they need to hone their skill sets as they both prepare for the exam and reference information for real-world solutions.
