RuPy 2012

20 November 2012

In a few short years RuPy has turned into a serious conference about dynamic languages. The Eau de Web sent a decent-sized delegation (Mihai Dincă, Bogdan Tănase, Alex Morega) and we came back with new knowledge:

• Upcoming languages (Rust, Dart)
• Application architecture (James Coglan described how they split up a big monolithic Rails application at Songkick)
• Good and bad use of relational databases (Andrew Godwin)
• Documenting REST APIs (Lukáš Linhart)
• Packaging code, templates and stylesheets for a single-page app (Nick Fisher, SoundCloud)

… and much more. Conference organizers had enough foresight to distribute annotated maps of beer places in central Brno so we got a good sampling of local beer and quisine.
