Living Documentation - Jaap van Otterdijk
What if, like Dr. Frankenstein, you could breathe life into your documentation, making it not just a static relic but a living, breathing entity that evolves alongside your code?Join me as we explore the dark and delightful art of resurrecting documentation through automation. We'll delve into the horrors of manual duplication and the inefficiencies it breeds, before unveiling the power of scripts to automate the creation and maintenance of documentation. We'll stitch together disparate parts—outputs from tools — and infuse them with life, creating a cohesive and dynamic narrative that mirrors the ever-changing landscape of your codebase.
So, if you're tired of zombie docs that haunt your projects, join me on a journey to become the Dr. Frankenstein of documentation. Let's breathe new life into our work and unleash the power of Living Documentation!About the speaker:
Jaap van Otterdijk has over 15 years of development experience, he knows the challenges of maintaining a software project. He does this during his daily job at Tilaa, but also by night on various opensource projects. As maintainer of phpDocumentor, and contributes to other projects whenever they cross his path. Community works! And so does open source. He loves documentation, but loves automation even more.Git Worktrees - Tomás Arribas
A fairly unknown feature of git is the concept of "working trees". In a nutshell, it allows you to have branches checked out as regular folders. This seemingly simple feature can be a game changer when working between multiple in-progress branches. Forget about stashing, or cross-branch dependency changes nightmares. You can even keep working while another branch is being built or tested! After this talk, you will know how to create and manage worktrees, how to get around their caveats, and the best way to make them the new base of your regular workflow.About the speaker:
