A personal review of Packt's book 'Learning Ext JS', received free after licensing Coolite (an ASP.NET wrapper for Ext JS widgets). The reviewer found it a quick, enjoyable read with practical examples building a DVD collection manager using grids, windows, and custom column renderers, with a fun running theme referencing the movie Office Space.
