Any interest in a comprehensive book on fullstack development?

Question

I'm trying to gauge interest in a potential book about fullstack development that would cover things like: web history, http/https, rest/rpc, database, queues, message brokers, architecture, patterns, deployment, monitoring, cloud, etc. It would do so in a bottom up approach without relying on any specific framework (no Django, no Rails, etc). Goal would be to allow a reader familiar with web dev to fully understand all aspects of fullstack development in one single resources with pointers to additional resources as necessary.Focus being fundamentals, not new and shiny or what's popular right now.As far as I know no such comprehensive resource exists. All resources are disparate and cover different subsets of the topics of fullstack development.Obviously it would be a sizable undertaking, so wanted to see how much interest there would be before committing to it. It may span multiple volumes due to the amount of content you'd need to cover.

Have you ever written anything big before?

This sounds like one of those never ending projects that seem like a good idea at the time, but once you start putting in the work, you realize you bit off way more than you can chew...

A difficulty you will face is that if it relates to existing products it will date quickly, and if it doesn't it may just appear to generic. Not sure what you intend?
