Beginner stuff is thin on the ground and the docs aren’t amazing. I would however recommend the go rails into to rails videos. They aren’t effect, but not bad. Rails needs a Jeffrey Way/Laravel guy
Impressive! This seems to be the best popular framework for web database development that I can currently see out there, right? Better than Laravel/PHP, or any Django-based stuff, right?
So rails goes to great lengths to provide maintainable html and you've just totally gone against the grain. Perhaps it would be better if you actually understood exactly what Rails is about before presenting this. It's definitely not for me
Hi James, please keep it friendly. Adam is well aware of what Rails is about. It might not be for you, but he was invited to speak at Rails World and we understood beforehand what his talk was going to be about. - Amanda, Rails Foundation
This guy reminds me of the wag who had me rolling at his interview. Me: how well do you perform under pressure? Him: I don't really… but I can do a mean Bohemian Rhapsody.
Glad I found this because the rails guide at this point is totally confusing around this. Would be nice for this information to get there, because as I read them it sure seemed like Sprockets should be avoided if you did transpiling, but now I guess that's bad and we should convert to this wild propshaft setup? There's absolutely no mention of this gem in the Rails guides asset pipeline currently.
Hi there. The Rails Guides are currently undergoing major update and renovation, and we will add this issue to the list of desired updates. -Amanda, Rails Foundation
I haven’t touched rails in 6-7 years. Now there’s Hotwire and turbo. Instead of using it in API only mode, I’m trying to actually do things “the rails way”. I’m really liking it so far. i can get so much done without writing any Javascript. Not that I dislike Javascript, but it’s so much quicker to use the conventions and framework magic than to write the code that would be required to do it manually myself.
I loved this talk. And I enjoy the philosophy that he pursues: everything always free to develop and maintain by the community, all no-build, all full-stack. I'm a Laravel developer for 10 years and I really wish its philosophy matches DHH one, but they only create more and more SaaS pay-per-use tooling. Amazing keynote :)
It's funny to watch someone talk about Scrum when they never really experienced it the way it was designed :) Your understanding/experience of Scrum is wrong at so many level 😅. And I can tell you, I am "using Shape Up" in my company, in a different way that you are describing, and this is bad. Because it's not used as it was designed. I am using agile frameworks since 2011, my first professional year, and everything that you describe as i can understand as "good solutions" I knew and did before discovering Shape Up. My point is that it's pointless to say that something is bad, just for the buzz. Simply offer an alternative, and don't use the competition as an argument. Mostly when the only new feature that Shape Up brings is the Appetite. And that is a great one ! The rest is already existing, just rebranded. 1. Shaping is called Product Backlog refinement. 2. Appetite, or "How much time I want to spend on this" is called Sprint. 3. Shapes and Scopes are called Product Backlog items (that the Scrum Guide explain that it is the accountability of the PO, but that they can delegate this - ie : within the team). 4. Cool-down is, in my opinion and experience, just a way to finish what was late. Which, I think, is not your intention. But if it is, I think it's a non-sense. PS : Writing is bad for detecting tone, so I want to insist in the fact that I'm saying this with the most friendly tone possible 🫶
Thanks for this amazing talk. For reader's knowledge, Ruby heap pages were 16kb for a long time (you will find a lot of resources saying they are 16kb) but this changed in late 2022 with Ruby 3.2 to 64kb, the update was made by Peter Zhu (speaker) :)
Cool feature, but I'm going to have to pass. Too many changes to the way we do things. I fear how little support it'll have with other features and 3rd party libs.
Eh, you could just do all this with JQuery instead. Haha, just kidding! Seriously great presentations, I have experience with hotwire and I learned some great new ways of using it from this; thanks! Keeping Ukraine in our thoughts 🇺🇦 ✊🏻
