About the Author

Christopher Pitt is a principal developer for SilverStripe in Wellington, New Zealand. He usually works on open source software, though sometimes you'll find him building compilers and robots.

I'd like to thank SilverStripe for supporting open source, in general, and for my growth as a developer, in particular. Many folks have helped me through the process of writing this book, especially the open source and platform teams at SilverStripe. Thanks to everyone who answered a question, gave me writing advice, and shared their excitement about React with me. They are the authors of this book as much as I am.

I'd also like to thank my family, especially my patient and loving wife.
