Preface
Digital buyers are increasing the economy around the world, and Information Technology (IT) is
providing the necessary subsidies to allow the customers to buy services and products over the
Internet. According to the research conducted by Statista (http://goo.gl/BSCiuO), in 2016, 1.12
billion people worldwide are expected to buy goods and services online.

Since the launch of Amazon.com, the first commercial-free 24-hour e-commerce website, the universe
of software development’s techniques have evolved and new approaches are emerging, such as cloud
computing: previously, an embryonic idea, today a concrete application.

The Magento Commerce company, recognized as the leading e-commerce platform in the 2015
Internet Retailer Top 1000, B2B 300, and Hot 100 lists, is in constant evolution since the first
Magento Community Edition (CE) system version in 2008. Launched recently, Magento CE 2.0 has
great features and takes advantage of the newest client-server techniques, providing a mature e-
commerce system and a promising professional area to explore.

Magento CE 2.0 works with a modern theming and layout framework, extensive and efficient APIs,
stable interfaces with the business logic layer and, mainly, a reliable system to allow the
implementation of custom functionalities.

Magento 2 Theme Development covers the newest concepts in Magento theme development. The
mission of this book is to give to the readers the necessary information to start mastering the Magento
Theme Development concepts.

Enjoy the read.
