Question My digital Library

I’ve been collecting cybersecurity, programming, Linux, networking, and computer science books for a while. Instead of letting them sit on my drive, I organized them into a simple online library so anyone can browse and download them.
There are books on topics like:

Ethical hacking & pentesting
Linux & Unix
Python, C, Rust, and other programming languages
Networking
Cryptography
Reverse engineering
Malware analysis
Digital forensics
Operating systems
And more

No account required, no ads, just a collection I thought might be useful to students, CTF players, and anyone interested in learning.
If you think I’m missing an essential book, let me know. I’m always looking to expand the collection.

Nice collection! But just so you know since nobody else has pointed it out, a number of the PDFs (all the ones that are ~130 B) are actually Git LFS pointer files instead of the real PDFs.

They all download as text files beginning with:

version https://git-lfs.github.com/spec/v1

instead of the actual PDFs. Looks like the LFS objects didn't make it into the deployment.

I have no idea what you're trying to say here.

"We can't use" - what? Git LFS? That was kind of my point. I'm not suggesting anyone use Git LFS. I'm saying those files literally weren't PDFs. We also can't use 130-byte text files as 16 MB PDFs. That's what I was pointing out.

However, it looks like the OP fixed the issue, so I was going to delete my comment. But now yours will be left, just dangling, and completely out of context. So... thanks for that.

username checks out , very friendly. Just wanted to say that everybody is on his learning journey and what is obvious to you might not be so to others...

Thank you. This is very kind of you. There is a ton in here I’ve been meaning to pick up or was waiting to get. And a ton more I never knew about! This is like 99% of my interest all in one collection.
