Paul F. Johnson has been writing software since the days of the old 8-bit micros in the 1980s, with his first published piece of software being made in 1984 for the BBC Micro. From there, his passion to learn and develop increased along with his love for Chemistry. For many years, he married the two at the University of Salford, culminating in commercial work for RiscStation Ltd. as well as working on the award winning Scribus desktop publishing application. For many years, Paul contributed a large amount of time to the Fedora Project (a community-based Linux distribution sponsored by RedHat), and in 2002, he started to become interested in the Mono project from Ximian. That was the beginning of the end of his time in education, and over the next 10 years, he learned how to code in VB.NET and C#. Ximian was sold to Novell, who in turn were bought out themselves, and from that, Xamarin was born. The rest is history. With the advent of a workable .NET system that can be used in a non-Windows environment, the stage was set and the hard work could begin. When Xamarin released monodroid, Paul could see that his years of learning could now be turned into profit and went full-time developing code for the platform. Shortly afterwards, he began working on iOS devices as well. At the start of 2013, Paul along with Andrei and his good friend Scott formed Sporkish; the objective being to produce unbeatable software for the mobile world. This is Paul's first foray into the world of books, though he has had many articles published in the Association of C and C++ User's magazines Overload and C Vu (the latter he edited for over a year). Paul is currently developing mobile applications for Farntrack Pty (Australia) and HelloU (London, UK) and is beginning work on another Packt book for Android development using Xamarin.Android. Paul is 42, lives with his wife, dog, cats, and son, and drinks way too much coffee!
