The Building of Jetrecord
This is for posterity. It took a lot of time to make these videos relative to the time it takes to teach the concepts and the actual actions taken at the command line. At one time I had a good production system going, but it took a long time to set up. Design took a long time. Getting the feeling right. Tracking down all the archival footage. Editing. Creating the closed captions and making it all accessible.
It’s a lot of work and I’m really happy with the results, but it’s been over two years since the last video was produced and the Rails workflow I was demonstrating has changed for me. I don’t use RSpec and Cucumber anymore, for example. Rails is now at version 3.1. At some point I may revisit making screencasts like this, but there’s no time in my schedule right now. Enjoy them as part of my history.
Follow along as I build version 2 of Jetrecord using Ruby on Rails.
- The Tabula Rasa of Doom: every project has a beginning
- Tell Me a Story: customers are integral to completing the project
- Git, Capistrano, and a Test Release: put code in a repository and release it
- Cucumbers and Webrats!: set up Cucumber and Webrat testing
