Experience in the last weeks

Well I’ve been apart from this blog in writing about how is going my experience, but that’s because I’ve been reading a lot and also learning about Webrick, Sinatra and Heroku. So I was programming a little blog in ruby but using just webrick, because in the program they said that I cannot use any gem and things like that, also that I had to use rspec to test it. This blog took me a while because I did not get it so fast, webrick is kind of confusing for me, and also there is not too much information about it. So, I’m still stuck in testing, cause in first instance I did not know about how to run the server in the background, now that someone explain me how to do that I can do it, so I just need to figure out, the format of the parameters. I did some tests to that blog but, to another class that I use, no to the one that process the requests, so I need to finish that. Rspec is kind of trouble with these things when you need a server, because if you need to do tests to another class that doesn’t need a server is easier.

        Moreover, since yesterday I started to learn about Sinatra and Heroku, to make another blog. This time, I feel that it is easier than is with Webrick. Because, you can find more help about Sinatra, also I said that I feel it easier, because I just started yesterday and, I did research, some examples using Sinatra as the Hello world, process parameters and also start my blog’s application and till now I can write a new post, list all the posts, and the other 2 functions edit and delete are in progress.

Also I finished the Clean code book and read Practical object oriented design in ruby book. These books gave me a lot of teachings. I’m actally planning to make a summary of all of my notes about the last book, but I need time to process all of them in a single article and then post it, hopefully I’m gonna do that when finish college.

       The apprenticeship program is a huge tool, where I’ve learned a lot of things, it is a great opportunity to learn how to do better code, and also learn how is the world of programmers. I’m so thankful, for being part of this program; it has made me grow as a person and also in this field of programming.
