Author Information

Nico Loubser has been writing software for 22 years. During that time, he has also gained an honours degree in the field of software engineering, undertaken talks at PHP meetups, and designed man-made systems from the ground up, learning many practical tips and workarounds along the way. One of the guidelines he learned was: “Do not fall in love with a solution,” which urges people to evaluate their successes and failures before applying them to similar problems. Nico is also the author of the popular book Software Engineering for Absolute Beginners from Apress.
