Episode 418: Flash Forward to Railsconf Day 2 with Andrea Fomera

[00:00:49] What an interesting week for Andrew! Find out exactly what happened to him and all about his “concerns” he had at work. [00:07:41] Chris was on Twitter this week talking about maybe bringing back “Rails Rumble” and he would love to make it happen but would need help. [00:12:20] We find out if anyone has participated in a Hackathon before. Chris and Jason talk about one time they tried to have their own Hackathon and what happened.[00:18:27] Andrea, the “Caddy Expert,” tells us all about Caddy and how Caddy 2 has the built in API. [00:22:21] Andrea talks about a “proof of concept” she put together instead of using an API.[00:24:53] Andrew wonders if Caddy is just a replacement for NGINX and Chris explains. He also mentions that Caddy is like NGNIX on steroids. ☺ [00:28:53] Chris tells us what Passenger does, and Andrea shares something about Passenger.[00:31:50] We learn more about Andrea’s Hotwire course, and she shares her opinions on good case uses for Hotwire or StimulusReflex. [00:37:35] Andrea tells us the biggest confusion with a lot of people who have gone through her course.[00:38:39] Andrea announces there is a link to her course as well as Jason’s course, and you should check them both out. Andrea also announces she is giving a 15% discount on her course for Remote Ruby listeners!  ☺[00:39:08] We end with Chris announcing the launch of the Hotwire iOS template for Jumpstart Pro, which is going to be pretty sweet.Panelists:Jason CharnesChris OliverAndrew MasonGuest:Andrea FomeraSponsor:HoneybadgerLinks:Andrea Fomera WebsiteLearn Hotwire by Building a Forum-Course by Andrea FomeraInteractive Rails with StimulusReflex- Course by Jason CharnesRails RumbleCaddyMicrosoft Vista Speech Recognition Tested- Perl ScriptingJumpstart Pro iOSPassengerNGINX

[00:02:25] Chris starts off and gives a s/o to Andrea Fomera for being one of the first GoRails subscribers and the longest subscriber. Then they explain what RailsBytes is and how they got into building it.  [00:08:37] Chris talks about something they discovered working on this project and Andrea Fomera gives an example about installing things that depend on Webpacker.    [00:11:45] Andrew mentions if you look at templates that exist today, people are employing different methods for adding a gem to the gem file, so he wants to know if Chris and Andrea Fomera have specific ways or recommended practices to do things.   [00:17:58] Chris mentions about a Tweet that Marco created a CLI gem for RailsBytes which is really neat. Andrew gives Marco a s/o.  Chris asked them if they know what tool he was using for building the interactive CLI stuff and Andrew tells us.  [00:21:02] Chris tells us what “Thor” is and we find out that Andrew doesn’t like it. [00:24:12] Andrew has a problem with Andrea Fomera’s nesting controller pattern and Andrea Fomera explains it’s just name spacing. Andrew comes up with a funny analogy that cracks Andrea Fomera up! ☺ Jason is proud of Andrew’s analogies! [00:25:33] Andrea Fomera and Chris let us know how people can support or promote the product.[00:26:30] Andrew asks them if they’ve given any thought or concern if a developer comes along and tries to use this RailsBytes and it doesn’t work, that failure will get pushed over to the view component library instead of where it might ought to be. They tell us what they will probably do. [00:29:46] Chris talks about how one of the things he likes about installing certain libraries, like Passenger, is that they have an interactive way of setting up that on your server, which is how he hopes to get more people with RailsBytes. [00:33:14] Andrea Fomera tells us more about “AppLocale,” how she got started on it, what it does, and why it will change the world.  Andrew tells us to look up “Rails I18n.” (shorthand for internationalization.)[00:41:46] Jason says he has a lot of StimulusReflex things to talk about with Nate in another episode and Andrew tells Jason that Nate’s opinion of him as a developer has hit some major “Stonks!”  Then, Andrew thanks Jason because now he’s created a massive amount of refactoring work for him. ☺Sponsor:LinodePanelists:Jason CharnesChris OliverAndrew MasonGuest:Andrea FomeraLinks:Andrea Fomera TwitterAppLocale“Learn Rails by Building Instagram,” by Andrea FomeraRailsBytesThorCLI for RailsBytes by Marco RothAppLocale Ruby TestRailsBytes Debug ParamsRails Internationalization (I18n) API“Stonks”-definition for Boomers
