CS-Book

CS-Book is a curated collection of free, open-source computer science e-books assembled by a Chinese developer who goes by the name Shuaidi. The project originally hosted download links for books covering Java, Python, Linux, Go, C, C++, data structures and algorithms, artificial intelligence, computer science fundamentals, job interview preparation, design patterns, databases, and front-end web development.

The current state of the repository is minimal. The README notes that books tied to commercial publishers have been removed. What remains is a pointer to the author's WeChat public account, where followers can request the curated open-source book list by sending a keyword. The repository also links to a separate interview-preparation website the author built at iamshuaidi.com.

For someone looking to use this as a direct download library, the repository no longer functions that way. The content has moved to the author's social media channel and personal website. If you speak Chinese and are comfortable following a WeChat account, you can still access the curated reading list through that route.

The topics attached to the repo (algorithms, Java, Linux, HTML, JavaScript, C) reflect what the original collection covered, giving a sense of the breadth the author was aiming for. With over 11,000 stars, the project clearly attracted a large audience when the book links were active, but the README itself is now sparse and the primary content lives elsewhere.
