About the Authors
Félix López started his career in web development before moving to software in
the currency exchange market, where there were a lot of new security challenges.
Later, he spent four years creating an IDE to develop games for hundreds of different
mobile device OS variations, in addition to creating more than 50 games. Before
joining ShuttleCloud, he spent two years working on applications with sensor
networks, Arduino, ZigBee, and custom hardware. One example is an application
that detects the need for streetlight utilities in major cities based on existing
atmospheric brightness. His rst experience with Python was seven years ago,
He used it for small scripts, web scrapping, and so on. Since then, he has used
Python for almost all his projects: websites, standalone applications, and so on.
Nowadays, he uses Python along with RabbitMQ in order to integrate services.
He's currently working for ShuttleCloud, an U.S.-based startup, whose technology is
used by institutions such as Stanford and Harvard, and companies such as Google.
I would like to thank @panchoHorrillo for helping me with some
parts of the book and especially my family for supporting me,
despite the fact that I spend most of my time with my work ;)
