Code and the Coding Coders who Code it

In this episode, I'm joined by returning guest Brittany Martin to talk about her new role as an Engineering Manager at Shogun. We also discuss corporate hackathons, the delicate balance between work and personal projects, and the potential benefits for both developers and the company. Brittany shares her insights on the value of hackathons in terms of team bonding, productivity, and learning opportunities. We also have mischievous plan to surprise another podcast. Links:The Ruby on Rails Podcast@brittjmartin on Twitter@brittjmartin@ruby.social on Mastodonbrittanymartin.devBrittany Martin on LinkedInShogunChatGPTSend us some love.

Nick Schwaderer rejoins the show. We discuss our experiences in giving talks, the importance of engaging with the audience, and the development of Scarpe, a new implementation of _why's Shoes DSL for building Ruby desktop applications. Nick shares valuable insights on creating connections, maintaining a balance between humor and content, and fostering a welcoming community. Nick also hints at something awesome that our editor refers to as "Schwad-warts Express". You're going to have to listen to find out all about it.Links:@schwad_rb on Twitterschwad.github.ioScarpe GitHub RepoNobody Knows ShoesGlimmer RubyBlue Ridge RubySend us some love. Support the show

Julie J, co-host of Ruby for All, joins the show to talk about her cool side project and Ruby for All. We talk about getting stuff done, Rails upgrades, and some of the confusion that still exists around assets in Rails. Julie has quickly grown into one of my favorite podcast hosts so you definitely want to give this one a listen.Links:@codewithjulie on Twittercodewithjulie.com@rubyforall on Twitterrubyforall.comngrokOpenId ConnectOAuthlvh.me (for localhost tunneling)readme.localtest.mePaperclip GemSend us some love.

The creator of Phlex, Joel Drapper, joins the show. Joel has been working on HTML streaming in Phlex and, spoiler alert, it sounds super cool! Joel really likes SQLite and thinks Aaron Francis's new MySQL for developers course is great (he's right). We also dive into getting unblocked by using a Ruby Developers secret weapon (hint: it's the community).Links:PhlexLitestreamIntroducing LiteFSSQLiteExtraliteRooftop RubyMySQL for DevelopersSend us some love.

Coding Coders first ever guest, Andrew Mason, returns to give an update on what he's been up to since joining Podia. Of course no episode with Andrew would be complete without a dive into ADHD land.

Joe Masilotti is, in many ways, the guy. Chances are you've heard of him you may just not know his name. He's the Turbo Native guy, the RailsDevs guy, the helping juniors get hired guy, the Hotwire newsletter guy, the all around nicest guy. Joe joins the show to talk about his various projects, why it's so important to build in public, and how doing less is helping him to do it all.Links:@joemasilotti on Twitter@joemasilotti@ruby.social on Mastodon@joemasilotti on GitHub@joemasilotti on LinkedInhttps://masilotti.com/https://railsdevs.com/Hotwire NewsletterTurbo Native WorkshopWNB.rbWomen on Rails NewsletterSend us some love.

A double first for Coding Coders, this episode is the first to feature TWO guests, both from the shows very first sponsor OBLSK! Mike Munroe and Dave Kroondyk are from OBLSK, a software consultancy specializing in Ruby on Rails. In this episode they share their adventures converting a clients dotNet and angularjs application to Rails and Hotwire. A full rewrite of any application is always an adventure but throw in mobile apps and you have an adventure of epic proportion. Mike and Dave share the things they've learned along the way and why they firmly believe there is not better choice than Rails.Links:OBLSK@mikepmunroe on TwitterMike Munroe on LinkedIn@davekaro on ruby.socialThe Rails and Hotwire Codex by Ayush NewatiaJumpstart ProPhlexSend us some love.

This episode Tom Rossi, from Higher Pixels, joins the show. You're probably familiar with Higher Pixels work but you may not know it. They're the brains behind my favorite podcast hosting service, Buzzsprout, which is used to host this show! Tom is an amazing guest with lots of stories to tell.  Learning to scale Buzzsprout, upgrading to Rails 7/Hotwire, and that time they had to ask a podcast to go somewhere else because they got too big! Links:higherpixels.comBuzzsprout@tomrossi7 on TwitterDonor ToolsTickRails SaaS ConferenceSend us some love.

It's a New Year and a new episode of Code and the Coding Coders who Code it! In this episode (which I'm calling Yet Another Podcast Episode), man of many projects, Kevin Newton, joins the show. Kevin tells us about YARP, the new Ruby parser, and his desire to help make it a "magical unicorn rainbow land" (his words not mine). We also get into dealing with to do lists, the weight of high expectations, and imposter syndrome. Links:@kddnewton on Twitterkddnewton.comAdvent of YARVRuby hacking guideYARP repoRuby LSP Reposyntax_tree repoTRICK 2022TRIC Entry 4Evaluating Ruby in Ruby by Ilya BylichRuby Spec repoSend us some love.

Jeremy Smith has been designing and building web applications since 1998 and has worked with Ruby on Rails since 2009. Jeremy was also my unofficial, and completely accidental, conference buddy. We went to all the same in person conferences this year. He joins the show to talk about building successful web apps by your lonesome, solving really complex background job workflows, and spills the beans on a new regional Ruby Conference he's planning, Blue Ridge Ruby!Links:HYBRD@jeremysmithco on Twitter@jeremysmithco@ruby.social on MastodonSolo: Building Successful Web Apps By Your Lonesome at RubyConf MiniSolo: Building Successful Web Apps By Your Lonesome slidesFair QueuingSidekiq: Really Complex Workflows with BatchesEveryone Can Build a Twitter Audience course by Daniel VassalloBlack Magic by Tony DinhReady to start your own podcast?This show is hosted on Buzzsprout and it's awesome, not to mention a Ruby on Rails application.
