If you're in or near the Portland Oregon metro area tomorrow night we're
having a combined meeting of PDX.rb and the Portland Perl Mongers.
Details:
April Meeting
April 13th, 2005 6:30pm at Free Geek, 1741 SE 10th Ave
Ruby on Rails by Lucas Carlson
Ruby on Rails (
http://rubyon...
) is a 9 month old web framework
that provides shortcuts to many aspects of web development. Many of you
have already heard of Ruby on Rails since a lot of people have been
proclaiming 10x increases in productivity recently. This presentation
will
introduce you to the fundamentals of the framework by creating a simple
application from scratch. You will then learn some of the more advanced
features of Rails, like how to setup XML-RPC and SOAP API's for the
application and how easy it is to integrate Ajax features in forms. You
will also be exposed to some non-trivial Rails code from an existing
website (
http://webcollabo...
) in order to judge how well Rails
holds up when implementing non-trivial concepts.
Knowledge of Ruby is optional, there will be a short crash course at the
beginning of the talk.
Lucas Carlson comes from a background of almost 8 years of PHP
development. He discovered Ruby on Rails for himself 6 months ago and has
been gainfully employed developing in Rails ever since. He has also made
contributions to the framework. For more information about Lucas, see

Lucas did a great job of presenting Rails to a mixed crowd of Rubyists (including many who were
curious about Ruby who came to check it out) and Perl Mongers. Someone counted ~50 people there
tonight. Definately a good sized crowd.
Rails is certainly packing them in.
Oh, and Lucas even has a Physics thesis due on Friday.
