About the Author

Sagar Ganatra is a frontend architect from Bangalore, India. He is an expert in building web applications using modern web technologies such as HTML5, CSS3, Object-Oriented JavaScript, Kendo UI, jQuery, and JavaScript frameworks such as BackboneJS, RequireJS, and AngularJS. He also writes about these technologies in his blog at http://www.sagarganatra.com/.

I dedicate this book to my extraordinary parents, Tara Ganatra and Harshad Rai Ganatra, two of the greatest and wisest teachers in my life.

I also dedicate this book to my brother, Santosh Ganatra, and sister-in-law, Nisha Ganatra, for always standing by my side and encouraging me to write this book.
