Hamburg on Ruby

Ruby is a powerful language and this means that Ruby gives you a good chance to shoot yourself in a foot. “With great power comes great responsibility” and we all love to abuse our powers. During the talk we will explore examples of “smart” Ruby code and see why they are confusing to junior programmers, your colleagues and even you revisiting the codebase after 6 months. Come to this talk if you want to learn why “boring” is better than “smart”.

The talk will give an introduction into JSON API (http://jsonapi.org) and will cover the main concepts of the specification.

After the concepts are clear I will show how to implement the concepts with the jsonapi-resources gem (http://jsonapi-resources.com).

Hanami is a modern web framework for Ruby.

The topic will be presented by Sean Collins from Boulder, Colorado (US).
