No Starch Press

Since 1994, No Starch Press has redefined technical publishing by proving that complex topics can be both accessible and uncompromisingly rigorous. While other publishers chased digital trends, we recognized an enduring truth: technical professionals cherish well-crafted physical books. Our partnership with Penguin Random House has allowed us to bring this vision to an ever-growing global audience of developers, hackers, and technology enthusiasts. What sets us apart isn't just what we publish, but how we work. We're an independent company that treats each book as a craft project, not a product. We work closely with authors to distill complex technical concepts into clear, engaging prose. We believe that true learning happens when readers can follow a thought process, not just memorize commands. We're looking for people who share our obsession with quality and our belief that technical books should be both demanding and enjoyable and in bookstores of all kinds. Join us in our mission to create and distribute resources that don't just teach technology, but inspire readers to push its boundaries.
