I may have written this book, but this project would never have been a success without the active help and support of many people who have contributed to my journey; I would like to thank them all sincerely and from the bottom of my heart.

Firstly, I'd like to thank the acquisition editor, Meeta Rajani, for approaching and convincing me to write this title. The book improved in manifold ways through valuable comments from all the reviewers, time and again. Adrian Raposo did a commendable job helping develop the content as well as coordinating the overall project management. This book would not have been in its current shape had it not received the perfect touch of the technical editor, Abhishek Kotian, and also all the proofreaders.

Special thanks to my colleagues, Kamal and Mahananda. Kamal took time to get the cover image for the book, while Mahananda took the pain of scanning through the drafts, making sure that all the examples were running well. He also gave suggestions wherever screenshots or steps were changed. When you start writing a book on a product that has been around since its beta days and is still going through changes till its final release, the job of making sure that all the screenshots and steps are correct and up to date is a challenge. Mahananda really made it easy for me.

Last but not least, I'd like to point out that, if someone has suffered because of this project, it's my dear wife, Pallabi. Whether it involved making late night coffee, sacrificing weekends and bank holidays, whenever I implored her to bear with me by saying, "It's the book", she has always responded with a smile, without asking any question. Thank you for all your love, understanding, patience, and support.

I would also like to sincerely thank all those, though not mentioned here, who have helped me in this project directly or indirectly.
