A little less than a year ago, Zope 4 was released. As the successor of the complex, verbose, and certainly not agile Zope 3 (now called BlueBream), it was instantly welcomed with much cheer. Naturally, I chimed in and announced without much hesitation that the forthcoming 4th edition of my book would already be based on the lean and mean Zope 4.
Sadly, these were all just April fool's jokes.
Sadly? No, I should say luckily! Because something much better came out of Zope land just a few months after we jokingly invented a new Zope version. Grok 1.0 was released. And thanks to Carlos' tremendous effort, there's now a book to accompany and celebrate this achievement, too.
There is much to say about this book, but I'm sure you're eager to get started with your web application. So let me just tell you what I like best about it.
Carlos has managed to capture the Grok spirit in this book. It is concise, not too heavy and doesn't beat about the bush. Yet it manages to hit all the bases of web development, with a spikey club, of course. It is as smashing as the framework itself and I hope you'll enjoy both as much as I have.
Have fun!
Philipp von Weitershausen
Author of Web Component Development with Zope 3
Carlos de la Guardia has been doing web consulting and development since 1994, when selling any kind of project required two meetings just to explain what the Internet was, in the first place. He was the co-founder of Aldea Systems a web consulting company where he spent ten years working on all kinds of web projects, using a diverse range of languages and tools. In 2005, he became an independent developer and consultant, specializing in Zope and Plone projects. He frequently blogs about Plone and other Zope-related subjects.
This book would not have been possible without the understanding and constant encouragement from my wife, Liz. You are the love of my life, thanks for constantly pushing me to try more things and be what I can be.
My three little kids, Rodrigo, Santiago, and Valeria, had to put up with daddy being working on a book instead of playing with them. I can't imagine my life without them.
Thanks to my parents for their constant support and love. I am very fortunate for being part of our family.
Thanks to Martijn Faassen for being so kind and open with advice, even though I got him at a very busy time in his life. I was fortunate as well to have a great team of reviewers. Lennart Regebro and Jan-Wijbrand Kolman are Zope and Grok veterans who provided experimented advice. Carola Brand, Iasson Grabowski, and Marcel Klapschus helped me understand how a person unfamiliar with Zope technologies might look at the book. Thanks to all of them, my book is a better product. Thanks also to the Grok community, which keeps improving and evolving Grok, making it a great web development framework.
Thanks to Rashmi Phadnis for helping me through the initial stages of the book, and Amey Kanse for doing the heavy editing after that. Special thanks to Leena Purkait for her patience when managing this project.
Carola Brand lives in Lbeck, Germany. After studying bioinformatics for a year, she discovered her liking for programming. In 2007, she started an apprenticeship as an IT specialist in a small company that develops web applications based on Zope. She reviewed this book while working on a project with Grok for the first time.
Iasson Grabowski started his apprenticeship in 2007, after he obtained his general qualification for university entrance. He made his apprenticeship in a small company in Lbeck, where he had his first experiences in programming with Python and web development with Zope. While reading this book, he started his first project with Grok. In addition to programming, Iasson is very interested in sports, and likes to use his free time for sportive activities, watching movies, or just meeting with friends.
Marcel Klapschus lives in a small town near Lbeck, Northern Germany. He started his apprenticeship as an IT specialist, with a main focus on web development with Zope and Grok, in 2008. As a beginner, he knows the "stumbling blocks" of first-time programmers very well, which led to the motivation to write this review. When Marcel is not programming or reviewing, he is engaged in writing fantasy novels, on rainy evenings, while listening to some great music.
Jan-Wijbrand Kolman has been involved in the development of Grok since its early beginnings. He joined the original Grok founders when they held the second Grok "sprint", where the foundation was laid for what Grok currently is.
With a background in User Interface design, Jan-Wijbrand became more and more involved in software development when working at the V2_ institute for art, media, and technology, from 1998 on. In 2001, he became acquainted with Grok's "father", Martijn Faassen, and worked with him at Infrae. There, he worked on the Silva Content Management System, and other projects based on Zope 2, the predecessor of Zope 3.
Since the second Grok "sprint", Jan-Wijbrand has collaborated with the Grok community members on the advancement of Grok. Currently, he works for The Health Agency, where he develops highly personalized web applications with Grok.
I'd like to thank Sandra, Sverre, and Rune. I'd also like to thank my past and current employers for facilitating the work with and on Zope and Grok.
