Thanks to all my teachers who have taught me so many important lessons throughout my life.

Thanks to Mr. Nitish Bhardwaj, who has always offered me a lot of mentorship and guidance to develop as an engineering professional in the early days of my career.

Being part of the Mozilla community is one the best things that has happened to me. I wouldn't have been here without the amazing exposure and learning experience from the network. I would like to express my gratitude to the many people who have helped me grow as a contributor in the ecosystem, and special thanks to the Mozilla Reps, Mozilla Tech Speakers, and Mozilla India community volunteers. Thanks also to the Rust community team and members for their amazing work and contribution in providing developers with great documentation, and inclusive practices and programs; it has truly been a great learning experience being part of the community.

Thanks to my longtime friends, Harry Prince, Jairam Sankar, Srinivas Srikanth, Sriram Subramanian, Krishna Prasad, Firoz Jamal, and Ashique MN, and to all well wishers for their support and friendship.

Above all, I want to thank my parents, D.Dhinakaran and D.Selvi, for providing me with all the right resources and for being a great source of encouragement and positivity in my life, to my younger sister D.Abhinaya for showing great confidence in my works, and to the rest of my family for their unconditional love and support, inspite of all the time it took me away from them. It was a long and difficult journey for them.

Last but not least, I beg forgiveness of all those who have been with me over the course of the years and whose names I have failed to mention.
