I would like to dedicate this book to my mother and sister for
believing in me and always encouraging me to do what I like with
all my crazy ideas. Special thanks to my family, friends (Hackerz),
core team (Rachel H Martis, Anil Dikshit, Karthik Belur Sridhar,
Vikram Sridharan and Vishal Patel), and Lokesh Gowda for allowing
me ample amount of time in shaping this book.
A huge thanks to Darren Fuller, my mentor and friend, for
providing his support and insights. Also to the excellent team at

the journey of this book, specially Sachin and Nirant for their
indubitable coordination.
