Ruby on Rails is sort of like that really popular girl in school who everybody wants to get to know better and everybody wants to go out with.
And Noel Rappin, well, he's like the best teacher in school whose classes everyone signs up for and who has the best reputation and who really connects with his students.
So this training session is a little bit of TechWeek heaven: "Welcome to Rails" with Noel Rappin on Saturday, July 23 from 3:30 to 5:00 pm.
In an hour and a half, Noel will provide you with a solid introduction to Rails and explain how and why Rails makes web development manageable and fun. You'll understand why Rails has become hugely popular and the web framework of choice for so many.
Noel is a senior consultant at Obtiva who knows his stuff. He is a sough-after speaker who presents at conferences and leads training sessions around the country. An accomplished developer, instructor and author, he is fluent in multiple programming languages and has been working with agile development since before it was called agile.
He's the author of several books including "Rails Test Prescriptions” and “Professional Ruby on Rails,” and he has worked in software development his entire career.
Noel dabbled in standup comedy for a time, but discovered that the audiences at developer conferences and training courses were far more receptive to his material.
Don't miss this TechWeek training session... it's going to be a popular one. Just like that girl in high school.
