All interior layouts were designed by Eric Freeman and Elisabeth Robson. Kathy Sierra and Bert Bates created the look & feel of the Head First series. The book was produced using Adobe InDesign CS and Adobe Photoshop CS. The book was typeset using Uncle Stinky, Mister Frisky (you think we’re kidding), Ann Satellite, Baskerville, Comic Sans, Myriad Pro, Skippy Sharp, Savoye LET, Jokerman LET, Courier New and Woodrow typefaces.

Interior design and production all happened exclusively on Apple Macintoshes—two Mac Pros and two MacBook Airs to be precise.

Writing locations included: Bainbridge Island, Washington; Portland, Oregon; Las Vegas, Nevada; Port of Ness, Scotland; Seaside, Florida; Lexington, Kentucky; Tucson, Arizona; and Anaheim, California. Long days of writing were powered by the caffeine fuel of Honest Tea, GT’s Kombucha, and the sounds of Sia, Sigur Ros, Tom Waits, OMD, Phillip Glass, Muse, Eno, Krishna Das, Mike Oldfield, Audra Mae, Devo, Steve Roach, Beyman Brothers, Pogo, all the people at turntable.fm, and a heck of a lot more 80s music than you’d care to know about.
