I know that the economy is actively in freefall right now, but I am glad that after 4-6 months of chewing on the problem; I’ve written an 8.2K word guide on overhauling the view layer for a Rails app. It should go live by the end of the week, still getting reviews on the first draft.

A screenshot of the stats for an upcoming guide in Scrivener. 8,334 words; approximately 30 minutes reading time A colorful illustration of a lab, with the text “Revamping an entire UI without freezing development” on a chalkboard in the center on the left: Buffy, a white dog, is looking at a bug under a microscope. A vest on Buffy reads “bug inspector.” To the right, a man frantically tries to explain a technical concept to a herding dog, Kira. There is a mishmash of technical ideas strewn about the cork board next to the man (who is holding a cigarette), most of which is hastily scribbled in.
