I fully agree. Excellent observations.

Im jealous that Jay was able to include so much in his book, and has been able to invest quite a bit of time into it. An invaluable resource for the Ext JS community for sure.

I have read 4 ExtJS books (Jay’s ExtJS in Action, Shea’s Learning ExtJS, the ExtJS and Google Gears, and now this cookbook). They all have their positives and negatives. In particular, the cookbook has a lot of good examples you can build on in your own application. On the other hand, several of the examples seem to be copied from other web sources or the ExtJS samples.

Jay’s book is very good at its in depth explanation of how to design a large scale application. That is something I think is sorely needed. Once you get past the basics, you can quickly get overwhelmed if you don’t have a good application architecture.
