Book Redesign

02 December 2020

We have updated the visuals style of the book. The starting page is now divided into sections and there is a navigation bar on the left. Moreover, the book now has a cover image which is shown on the front page and in the preface.

Another addition are icons which are displayed next to the chapters heading. The icons build a visual design language by indicating which type of content can be found in each chapter:

Icon Meaning
Reading Chapter This is a text chapter that conveys information about a topic
Info Box Icon for information boxes
Key Message Highlights key messages
Programming Exercise This chapter contains an exercise/tutorial which invoves programming
Tutorial This is a hands-on tutorial but it does not contain programming parts
