Ten Years of Rails Tutorials

Talkat RailsConf 2018 · 2018-04-17..04-19· [ruby-on-rails]
slides:none on file

Chronicle of concrete changes and outcomes: Rails tutorials trace specific moves — migrations and rake db:migrate replacing raw SQL, the emergence of the asset pipeline and hashed assets, the shift to RESTful controllers and sessions, testing migrations from fixtures to factories to pragmatic integration tests, and real deployment wins as projects use Git GitHub Heroku and providers like SendGrid. Expect concrete code examples, compatibility headaches when Rails upgrades, and whether each feature actually simplifies building and shipping web apps after ten years.
