Agenda

Saving My Relationship with Rails

Adam Dawkins says:

Setting healthy boundaries for a happy app. Our apps inevitably get more complex over time, and Rails isn't always helpful when that happens. In this talk we'll explore what a Rails app can look like with a 'functional core', and where to draw the boundaries between the core and Rails to stop things getting out of control.

Mistakes Were Made: Lessons from Failure

Clem Capel-Bird says:

This is a story of failure: the things I broke delivering a big project, the lessons those mistakes taught me, and why breaking things can be an engineer’s best tool for learning.
