How to make Guacamole & A gentle introduction to music theory (in ruby)

Monday, 11th August at Skills Matter, London

This meetup was organised by LRUG: London Ruby User Group in August 2014

Overview

How to make Guacamole

Guacamole is an ODM for ArangoDB to be used in Rack-based framework and especially Rails. I will talk about the design choices, caveats and my the general experience working on that kind of library. The talk will not go too deep into technical details and should be interesting to novice and experts alike.



Dirk Breuer

I'm a freelancer focussing on web application architecture and development. Most of the time I code Ruby. I also like to automate stuff, cut down monolithic apps in small services and improve team communication.


A gentle introduction to music theory (in ruby)

The real issue is that the documentation is bad and the API is worse! In this talk I will show how to start with nothing but a ruby interpreter, and generate sine waves, notes, scales, modes, chords, arpeggios and songs, in a way that will be understandable to those who have never touched an instrument before and will (hopefully) offer an interesting new perspective even to those who are already well versed in music theory.
