Acknowledgments
This documentation would not be possible without the many contributions to the Bitcoin project over the years from core developers and other people. A very special thanks, however, goes to David Harding who in 2014 helped lead the effort to compose and bring together a significant amount of the material found here. Also, to Cornelius Schumacher for envisioning new ways to extend the developer documentation that led to this site.
