Jade Developer Day

[neilbmclaughlin]

I'm trying to gauge the level of interest there would be in the UK for a Jade developer day.

This would be developers coming together for a day of sharing experiences in software development using Jade along the lines of the DDD days by the .NET development community (http://www.developerdeveloperdeveloper.com/ddd8/).

I'd expect the day to focus on discussions, demonstrations and hands-on sessions around solutions to problems common to teams regardless of their business domain (eg unit/integration testing, revision control systems, deployment, refactoring, tools etc)

I'd be happy to contribute some of the experiences I've had with effective Test Driven Development in Jade and I'm sure I could rope Jason Young in to talk about refactoring tool he is working on.

If you are even remotely interested then fil out the form here:

I'd be keen to present something on the refactoring tool.

Just to clarify, the tool Neil refers to is not affliated with Jade, but is an extension of the scripts in this post: https://forums.jadeworld.com/viewtopic. ... 6195#p6195. Dr Danyo and I have added quite a lot to it and are planning on releasing a version shortly for people to use.

As a bit of a preview, in addition to the features listed in the linked post, we've added:

• A basic version of the "extract method" refactor.
• Introduce Class Constant
• Introduce Local Variable
• Generate Class
• Hotkeys for making a method protected, updating and unitTest.
• Plus others...
