April Meetup Video – Building Light Deployment Free JSON API’s with Dropwizard

 

This month we took a walk through Dropwizard city with out very own Luke Lappin. He is a senior enterprise architect with us who also happens to be an incredible guitar player.

As always, we have full video of the entire talk for you. We hope to provide you with a great step into Dropwizard.

Luke starts off by giving a quick background into Java and explaining that Dropwizard was created to be the glue between all these established Java packages. With this framework you can easily create REST and JSON services in the fastest way possible. Cool stuff!

Enterprise Java can be frustrating but it doesn’t need to be. Luke takes us through all the meat and potatoes of Dropwizard ingredient by ingredient. Tell us what you think in the comments.

Missed out on our April Meetup? Make sure to join our Meetup group and never miss out again! Follow us on Twitter for exclusive Meetup updates. We announce all topics and speakers on there first! Hope to see you next month.

March Meetup Video – Converting a Project from ES5 to ES2015

For our March Meetup we all gathered at IRHQ with Glenn Hinks to discuss switching a project over from ES5 to ES2015. Glenn has been writing software since 1981 and is a full time node developer working at a live video sports streaming startup. We are excited to have exclusive full video footage for you right here!

In this video you will learn how to begin the process of switching your own projects, why it’s beneficial to do so, recommended tools to use, how to get started, and even what pain points you might meet along the way.

Loved this video? Check out the rest of our Meetup talks on our YouTube channel and come to our next event.

February Meetup Roundup – Reactive Layout for User Interfaces

Let’s take a moment to think about how we interact with interfaces. I am willing to bet that about half of you think “point and click” while the other half considers “point and move”. At our most recent Meetup, David Valdman covered the topic of Reactive Layout for User Interfaces.

Sounds cool, but what does that mean? David started by giving us a little background on the difference between Object Oriented Programming and Reactive Programming. Let’s start with a question:

If a tree falls in a forest but no one is there to hear it, does it still make a sound? Has it even fallen?

We didn’t have any philosophy members to really help us dive into this conundrum. However, this is a great metaphor for Object Oriented and Functional programming. Still confused? It’s all revealed in the video above, including a more in-depth explanation of what the relationship is between reactive programming, layouts, and animation. David also dives into the JavaScript library, Samsara.js, which he recently published for animating layout.“It provides a language for positioning, orienting and sizing DOM elements and coordinating the animation of these properties over time. To do so, it borrows from the principles of reactive programming (samsarajs.org).

The talk was fascinating and we have full video coverage above for you to enjoy. We are excited to move into this new “point and move” territory together with you.

January Meetup – PostCSS with Nathan Stilwell

We are very excited to share video from our most recent Meetup where Nathan Stilwell provided an informative rundown of PostCSS and its features. Will you be using PostCSS on your next project?

Nathan started off by giving us a little history lesson in CSS and preprocessors which is necessary in order to fully understand why PostCSS is so awesome. When Sass and Less first came out, they were revolutionary as they enabled us to use CSS in a better way with things like variables, inheritance, mixins, importing, and nesting. But, on the flip side, our stylesheet became bulky and heavy. Preprocessors are huge monoliths…so, what if we wanted something smaller and more direct? What if we want to extend Sass? Enter PostCSS. At the most basic level, PostCSS is letting us work with our source code freely. And the true beauty of PostCSS lies within all of the plugins which allow us to do things like use the latest CSS features (which aren’t supported in preprocessors) to provide fallbacks for IE7, check colors, and so much more.

Have questions? We will be publishing a second video of our Q&A which occured after the presentation so stay tuned for details on the best features of PostCSS, limitations, similarities to different frameworks, the specifics of plugins and more!

A CTO’s Adventure Across the Pond – Video Blog

I was invited to speak across the pond in the UK at Full Frontal, ffconf 2015. It was very exciting for me because it was not only an honor to be speaking along side such amazing presenters as Sara Soueidan, Paul Lewis and many others, but also because I was able to talk about something dear to my heart. Natural languages, their parallels with programming languages as well as my web audio side project were all able to take center stage. I was very grateful to be able to watch the other amazing talks, and wholeheartedly pay attention to all of those after me. 🙂 This video is a roundup of my thoughts and theirs.
