Mangle
Railsrumble 2009
I’ve been quite busy recently trying to get a team together for Railsrumble 2009.
Should be a really good weekend where our team (Donkeyteam) will be taking part by trying to create a remote agile tool with an emphasis on good user experience.
The whole team will be going down to John Oxton’s crib in Oxford for a weekend of 50’s inspired design, CSS, jQuery and ofcourse Rails!
Will try and keep the blog up to date with the applications progress and photos of the madness (plus, it will give me a chance to get used to Paperclip for attachments)
ActiveRecord Stripper
Just a small announcement, have made my first mini library as an extension for ActiveRecord as a way to easily strip text fields before they are saved to the database.
You can download the plugin at http://github.com/omarqureshi/AR-stripper/tree/master
New blog
Finally decided to get the blog up as a way to try out the latest Rails stuff.
Will be trying to post on any plugins / gems that I have been developing, as well as teething problems that I have had with the current set up that I have and how that differs from my previous setup.
So, Railsrumble is over and turned out we didn’t end up getting much done with our idea!
A bit too ambitious unfortunately, however, we do plan on carrying on with it!
Introducing Mangle, an agile web development tool designed to help with remote agile and parallel tracks on the same story.
Hopefully we should have something usable soon for all to play with, nonetheless, everyone is welcome to play with our current, semi-working build!
