Acknowledgments
Many people provided their invaluable support to make this book possible:
- Susan Conant, our development editor at Manning, who supported us in so many ways: by providing valuable feedback on draft chapters, helping to plan book and individual chapter structures, giving encouragement, advising us on upcoming steps, helping us overcome bumps in the road, and so on
- Jettro Coenradie, our technical editor, who helped us review big chunks of the manuscript before it went to production and again helped with the final steps before the book went to press
- Valentin Crettaz, who helped with his thorough technical proofread
- Our Manning Early Access Program (MEAP) readers who posted so many helpful comments in the Author Online forum
- The reviewers from the development process who provided such good feedback that I can’t even begin to imagine how the book would look without them: Achim Friedland, Alan McCann, Artur Nowak, Bhaskar Karambelkar, Daniel Beck, Gabriel Katenbaumn, Gianluca Rhigetto, Igor Motov, Jeelani Shaik, Joe Gallo, Konstantin Yakushev, Koray Güclü, Michael Schleichardt, Paul Stadig, Ray Lugo Jr., Sen Xu, and Tanguy Leroux
