Who this book is for

This book is for programmers who already have used JavaScript in one way or the other. It's for people who work with a lot of backend code, and want to get up to speed with the world of HTML5 and JavaScript. It's for people who have used copy/paste to patch up a part of a page and want to know more about how things work in the background. It's for JavaScript developers who would like to update their knowledge with new techniques and capabilities made possible with HTML5.

The book is for both beginners and seasoned developers, assuming that you will have some experience in HTML, JavaScript, and jQuery already, but not necessary an in-depth knowledge.
