David Herron has worked in the software industry, holding both developer and quality engineering roles, in Silicon Valley for over 20 years. His most recent role was at Yahoo! as an Architect of the Quality Engineering team for their new Node-based web application platform.
While a Staff Engineer at Sun Microsystems, David worked as an Architect of the Java SE Quality Engineering team, where he focused on test automation tools, including the AWT Robot class that's now widely used in GUI test automation software. He was involved with launching the OpenJDK project, the JDK-Distros project, and ran the worldwide Mustang Regressions Contest asking the Java developer community to find bugs in the Java 1.6 release.
Before Sun, he worked for VXtreme on the video streaming stack, which eventually became Windows Media Player when Microsoft bought that company. At The Wollongong Group, he worked on both e-mail client and server software and was part of several IETF working groups improving e-mail-related protocols.
David is interested in electric vehicles, world energy supplies, climate change, and environmental issues, and is a co-founder of Transition Silicon Valley. As an online journalist on examiner.com he writes under the title Green Transportation Examiner, he blogs about sustainability issues on 7gen.com, runs a large electric vehicle discussion website on visforvoltage.org, and blogs about other topics including Node.js, Drupal, and Doctor Who on davidherron.com.
There are many people I am grateful to.
I wish to thank my mother, Evelyn, for, well everything; my father, Jim; my sister, Patti; and my brother, Ken. What would life be without all of you?
I wish to thank my girlfriend, Maggie, for being there and encouraging me, her belief in me, her wisdom and humor, and kicks in the butt when needed. May we have many more years of this.
I wish to thank Dr. Ken Kubota of the University of Kentucky, for believing in me, and giving me my first job in computing. It was six years of learning not just the art of computer system maintenance, but so much more.
I wish to thank my former employers, University of Kentucky Mathematical Sciences Department, The Wollongong Group, MainSoft, VXtreme, Sun Microsystems, and Yahoo!, and all the people I worked with in each company. I am grateful to my ex-manager Tina Su, who kept pushing me towards public speaking and writing, neither of which are natural for an introvert software engineer. I am especially grateful to Yahoo, for giving me an opportunity to work on their internal Node.js effort, and to accommodate the needs of writing this book.
I am grateful to Packt Publishing for giving me this opportunity to write a book, for making me realize that my dream is to write books, and for their expert guidance through the process.
I am grateful to Ryan Dahl, Isaac Schlueter, and the other Node core team members for having the wisdom and vision needed to create such a joy-filled fluid software development platform. Some platforms are just plain hard to work with, but not this one, and that takes vision to implement it so well.
Blagovest Dachev has been writing software for the Web since 2002. He went through the full spectrum of development by starting out with HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, then moving into the server and database world. Blagovest was an early adopter of Node.js and had contributed to several open source projects. He is currently a software engineer for Dow Jones & Company, where he works on a widget framework allowing third parties to search and display news on their websites.
Blagovest attended the University of Massachusetts at Amherst where he participated in information retrieval research, completed two consecutive Google Summer of Code mandates, and co-authored several papers.
I would like to thank my mother Tatiana for her love, relentless devotion, and strength, which has inspired me through the years, and my father Jordan for all the happy memories from my childhood.
Matt Ranney is an early adopter and contributor to Node.js. He is one of the founders of Voxer, which uses Node on its backend servers.

Welcome to the world of developing web software using Node (also known as Node.js). Node is a newly-developed software platform that liberates JavaScript from the web browser, enabling it to be used as a general software development platform in server-side applications. It runs atop the ultra-fast JavaScript engine from the Chrome browser, V8, and adds in a fast and robust library of asynchronous network I/O modules. The primary focus of Node is on building high performance, highly scalable server and client applications for the "Real Time Web".
