I want to thank my wonderful wife, Deepti, for giving me the space and support I've needed to write this book. I'd also like to thank Vijin for granting me the opportunity to complete this journey and Ajesh for keeping me on track. Special thanks to Aniket for reviewing the book. The whole Packt editing team has helped this first-time author immensely, but I'd like to give special thanks to Mrudgandha and Arun, who edited most of my work.
