Forget Ruby Forget CoffeeScript Do SOA @mlomnicki
SOA is becoming boring Andrzej Krzywda, yesterday
Monolith => SOA => Win
Backend Ruby + Rails/Sinatra/EM/... JRuby, Rubinius Ruby libraries
Frontend JavaScript CoffeeScript Stdlib Hell
What`s wrong Pick the BEST tool No reuse Upgrades
Best Tool? XYZ sucks but there is no better alternative
(in Ruby) RMagick - 1,457,870 downloads EM Contacts
SPA comes with great power We write a lot of
components They all can be new apps many APIs - many frontends - many apps Reuse How Twitter was born?
Examples Filepicker Aviary
Apps not libraries Thumbnails generator Contacts importer Payment processor Newsletter
The goal is to reuse APPS
Choice Frontend - JS/CS/Dart Backend - unlimited
Ruby Addictive Develop all the things in Ruby Doesn`t matter
if there are no libraries Isn`t it boring after all?
Writing an Irssi plugin Plugins in Perl Core in C
1st thought - write Ruby Bindings myself! 2nd thought - re-write Irsii in Ruby!!! 3rd thought - actually why not Perl?
The RVM2 case ZSH initially Ruby after @mpapis attended DRUG
Is it really the best option?
Ruby über alles Java sucks Python sucks C sucks Bash
sucks Perl sucks as hell Only new and immature langs do not suck (yet)
Fact #1 To suck, a programming language has to be
mature, stable, widely used and proven to do its job right. Otherwise it is shiny, brillant, innovative and you`re a donkey who does not understand it.
Opinion #1 JavaScript does not suck. It is immature, unstable,
ridiculous and does not do its job right.
SOA Diversity We are on the track ZMQ - Over
20 bindings Find your new Ruby Kill JavaScript Languages are easy to learn
My take From backend to frontend Go (does not suck!)
Google app engine (sucks)
Thanks
