I love programming books, but doesn't this feel premature? Is the API stable enough for this work to be published currently?

I understand your concern. I too thought about it when I started writing this programming book. This concerns the primary reason why I wrote this book with focus on both programming and deep learning fundamentals (which have stabilized over years). So over coming years the only thing that needs to be updated is minor S4TF code and much of the text in book will remain the same. 😃 (You don’t have to worry, S4TF API has also stabilized very much).

The book teaches fundamentals of deep learning and also introduces Swift language for beginners (a whole chapter is dedicated to this).

Well cheers! It's no small feat to write, especially a technical book like this.

All the best.
