Nelson was born at Verizon Labs in 2015 and became open source in the middle of 2017. The project built from years of experience in the field by a handful of senior engineering staff. Today there are a variety of contributors from various companies, all in different market sectors; from high-street retailers to hyper-growth internet companies.
