Andrew D. Patterson - Getting Started with Zurb Foundation 4

Andrew D. Patterson offers services through his own firm Patterson Research Inc., where he provides IT consulting, research, and writing services. He can be available on site in Atlantic Canada and throughout the world, anywhere the Internet reaches.

One of his projects was to help the Internet reach the South Pole.

His entire career has involved technology, from his early days of servicing cash registers to software engineering and consulting. He has worked as a requirements architect, designer, or builder on numerous business and government applications. He understands business, software, and technology. He has worked on both large and small projects. Clients appreciate his independent and thorough perspective when delivering advice and solutions.

For the past 10 years, all of his projects have been Internet-basedfrom the design and building of websites to open source integrations, medical billing requirements, and business intelligence.

In addition to early electronics training, Andrew has earned a Bachelor of Science degree from the University of New Brunswick, Canada; and he has a Master of Mathematics degree from the University of Waterloo, Canada.

Although he has authored dozens of documents, from requirements ("what is to be") to specifications ("how it should be") and user help ("what is"), this is his first published book.

I'd particularly like to thank my wife, Donna, for her encouragement and support during the writing process. She allowed me a quiet place to work. "What did you get done today?" she would ask. It didn't seem to matter whether she understood the response; it gave me an opportunity to verbalize my progress and to talk about what was next. Thank you, dear.

Vinay Kumar Atthelli has more than eight years of experience as a developer of frontend GUIs for web and mobile related applications. He is an avid WordPress developer and a creative person. He graduated from the Osmania University, Hyderabad. He also possess entrepreneurial skills and a keen eye for detail in every project he undertakes.

With extensive knowledge in HTML5, CSS3, and jQuery, he is also enthusiastic about SEO and social media. His interests extend beyond web and he loves helping people. Teaching is his passionhe is interested in teaching technologies and marketing strategies. He also loves building startups and SaaS.

In the words of Wilfried Rijsemus, Director Professional Development and Community at Cordys:

"Vinay is too modest if you measure his performance against his demeanor. Do not underestimate the resilience and tenacity in which he drives his products. His work was deemed by a Gartner analyst as the "benchmark to beat" and that quote came unsolicited! He is a hard working team mate who never leaves your side and will always deliver when you need it. He is an excellent wingman, a black hole in learning, and on his way to a mature thought and execution leader. I'm proud to have him on my team."

Bass Jobsen is from the Netherlands and has been programming on the Web since 1995. From C to PHP, he is always looking for the most accessible interfaces. He has a special interest in the process that takes place between the designing and programming stages. Interfaces should work independent of the device or browser! For these reasons, working with grids and meta languages in designs make him happy. He is looking forward to new opportunities in the semantic and responsive web.

He is always happy to help you at http://stackoverflow.com/users/1596547/bass-jobsen.

At the moment he is involved in writing a blog (http://bassjobsen.weblogs.fm), programming LBS for mobile devices (http://www.gizzing.nl), making cool websites like http://www.streetart.nl/, and counseling Jamedo websites (http://www.jamedowebsites.nl) on setting up the technical environment and the requirements for their business.

Preface

It was only a few years ago that HTML tables were being used heavily for web page layout. Tables have rows and columns; they can stretch vertically and horizontally; rows and columns can be combined into larger spaces. In short, HTML tables made it possible to lay out content on web pages using an underlying grid.
