Schneider INDEXER John Sleeva COVER DESIGNER Wiley COVER IMAGE © Digital Storn/Shutterstock Acknowledgments I WANT TO THANK Charlotte Kughen, who made my text so much more readable. Often I was working late at night writing while .NET Core was continuously evolving. Charlotte was of enormous help to change my ideas into great readable text. I’m almost sure that Charlotte now knows a lot more about programming than she would like to. Special thanks also goes to István Novák, who has authored several great books. Despite all the issues we had with the fast-evolving .NET Core and the interim builds I was using while working on the book, István challenged me to enhance the code samples that allow you—the reader—to better follow the flow. Thank you, Charlotte and István— you’ve been of great help for the quality of this book. I also would like to thank Kenyon Brown and Jim Minatel and everyone else at Wiley who helped to get edition 10 of this great book to be published. I also want to thank my wife and children for supporting my writing. You understood and helped with the time I was working on the book, including evenings, nights, and weekends. Angela, Stephanie, and Matthias—you are my loved ones. This would not have been possible without you.
