October Meetup: The Joy of (Enterprise) Refactoring

[Daniel Fone]

Hey everyone,

Sorry about the previous email, that was pretty special. I have no idea what gmail did to that. Anyway…

October’s meetup is next Thursday.

Back by popular demand, we are reprising our Joy of Refactoring meetup. This time, however, it’s Enterprise Ready™.

Once again we'll have a tiny Rails app, this time featuring a simple Xero integration. For the first half of the night, we'll pair up and explore some of the ways we can reorganise the code to be more readable, reliable, and ultimately more joyful. During the second half, we’ll discuss the results, along with the pros and cons of the various techniques that emerge.

If you're looking for inspiration, I highly recommend this talk examining the purpose of OO software design.

So… next Thursday at Catalyst, above Poms. Doors open at 7, meetup starts at 7.30. See the meetup page for details.

See you then, and remember, “Any way you want it to be, that’s just right.” 🎨

Daniel
