Lindner TechThe 450-Page Technical Handbook by Markus Lindner · Digital Edition
The Comprehensive Handbook: From the History of the Web, Website Builders, CMS & Headless Architectures to AI Workflows, Technical SEO, Search Engine Algorithms and Google Analytics 4
Wondering whether your next web project should run on a website builder, a classic CMS like WordPress or TYPO3, or a modern headless architecture with Next.js? This 450-page reference work bridges software engineering, UI/UX psychology, legal accessibility (BFSG / WCAG 2.2), artificial intelligence, search engine internals and privacy-first analytics with production-ready code blueprints and 5-year TCO calculations.

Book Specifications at a Glance
Six Core Pillars · 450 Pages of Depth
Instead of superficial marketing tips, this handbook provides rigorous architectural comparisons, mathematical foundations and production-ready code patterns.
From the birth of the WWW at CERN across DNS, TLS 1.3, HTTP/3 (QUIC) and the browser rendering pipeline to semantic HTML5, CSS Grid, Subgrid, Container Queries, OKLCH, PHP 8.4 vs. Node.js and TypeScript.
Visual hierarchy, eye-tracking patterns, Hick's & Fitts's Law, Atomic Design, Core Web Vitals (LCP, INP, CLS), conversion rate optimisation (CRO) and legally compliant accessibility under the European Accessibility Act (BFSG) and WCAG 2.2.
Unfiltered architectural and cost comparison between Wix, Squarespace, Shopify, Webflow and Framer, WordPress, TYPO3 and Drupal, and composable headless stacks using Strapi, Directus, Storyblok, Contentful, Sanity, Next.js and Astro.
Use AI productively in web engineering, prevent 'vibe-coding' security vulnerabilities, build GDPR-compliant RAG assistants with vector databases and meet EU AI Act obligations.
How search engines actually compute rankings: crawling, indexing, BM25 and the original PageRank formula, BERT and MUM, Technical SEO, JSON-LD knowledge graphs, E-E-A-T and Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) for Google AI Overviews, ChatGPT and Perplexity.
The GA4 event data model, e-commerce dataLayer, Google Tag Manager, Server-Side Tagging, GDPR/TDDDG compliance, Google Consent Mode v2 and cookie-free alternatives such as Matomo, Plausible and Pirsch.
