Reading this question (now with a bounty) I find that in other StackExchange site I would have flagged it as off-topic, specifically with the definition
Questions asking us to recommend or find a book, tool, software library, tutorial or other off-site resource are off-topic for Stack Overflow as they tend to attract opinionated answers and spam. Instead, describe the problem and what has been done so far to solve it.
Are this type of question on-topic in this community?
