This book is intended primarily for intermediate to professional PHP developers who are interested in Magento 2 development. For backend developers, several topics are covered that will enable you to modify and extend your Magento store. Frontend developers will also find some coverage on how to customize the look of a site in the frontend.

Given the massive code and structure changes, Magento version 2.x can be described as a platform that is significantly different from its predecessor. Keeping this in mind, this book will neither assume nor require previous knowledge of Magento 1.x.
