Ironically, the two most interesting items for me personally were not directory related to Merb at all. I was quite impressed with the CSS capabilities of SASS and CouchDB gave me hope that being stuck in the rigidity of columns in SQL is not always my path. Here’s my my Merbday summary, iteration retrospective format:
STOP:
- Assuming Merb is “fragmentation” (so said someone smarter than me ) of the Rails community and a real effort to improve on Ruby as the defacto web programming language.
START:
- Using ruby-prof in Rails projects and Kcachegrind to profile apps. (thanks for Yehuda Katz at www.engineyard.com )
- Playing with Merb on a real project and focus on understand slices and interaction with other slices.
- Investigate writing an Admin or basic CMS slice with someone else.
CONTINUE:
- Loving Rails and not abandon it as yet.
