Speakers: Jeff B. and Mike Sullivan

Free Meeting: This is a free meeting for anyone interested in learning
how
to build Ruby on Rails web applications. We welcome developers,
designers,
students, professionals, anyone wanting to learn more about the latest
web
development techniques and frameworks.

Details: From the beginning… we will be creating a new web application
from scratch using test first BDD/TDD Rails development. We will start
with
an idea, create a spec and some tests, HTML prototype, and then work to
make
it into a live web application. Jeff B. and Mike Sullivan will
be
your co-presenters for the evening.

We will build our application using:

  • RSpec / BDD
  • TDD
  • Migrations
  • Rails MVC
  • MasterView

As part of this ongoing series each month, we will teach you how to
build
web applications one step at a time. We’ll illustrate this using an
agile
approach iteratively building our application as we go. We will start
out
simple and add features over time much like you would in the real world.
Each month we will focus on a new area of the application and framework
so
you’ll always be learning.
