    Even though there are other ways to share your experience with the public, presentations still remain the key way of delivering structured content to the audience in a short time.
    Recent technologies like html5/Javascript/CSS3 and Markdown allow developers to throw away clumsy UI and start creating content that is easy to version, to merge, to restyle and to collaborate”

Announcing 14th DevClub.lv

Speakers for 14th DevClub.lv:

  • Philip Torchinsky from JetBrains will talk about "Continous Integration with TeamCity"
    (Language – Russian)
    Continous integration (CI) is very popular among developer team worldwide, as it saves time and, more important, keeps people away from doing meaningless work. While there are few popular open source CI servers available, more and more teams choose TeamCity, including companies such as Intel, Boeing, T-Mobile, Hewlett-Packard and others. What is speacial about TeamCity? How can we use it for mobile app development? How does JetBrains use it for internal purposes? Whether the integration with an IDE and issue tracker important or not? Discover with a live demo from JetBrains! The talk and demo are made speacially for this DevClub meeting, and this is a premiere of the talk.

His main specialization is UNIX technologies, his main interests at the moment are cloud technologies, issue trackers, and other developer tools. Philip has led trainings for IT specialists since 1993, wrote two books on UNIX, and used to work at Sun Microsystems before he joined JetBrains.

  • Uldis Karlovs-Karlovskis from Accenture will talk about “Configuration Management is evil!”
    (Language – Latvian)
    Now in Latvia there is a time when IT specialists has started to grow like mushrooms after the rain, but the biggest companies are grabbing new and new foreign projects. It seems like experience is growing, but worry about project’s deadline is still everyday. Novelty in these situations are the excuses we hear – it shows that there has been “a lack of configuration management”. But for another project – “too much configuration management”. The logic is not understandable both for themselves and the client, but that’s just the way it seems to be. It’s definitely evil!
    Tags: Configuration Management, Continous Integration, Continous Delivery, development tools

    About me: “I started to work with configuration management when no one exactly didn’t know what could I do at all. I have done some coding, testing, configuration and did some talking, managed some things… As a result – I didn’t learned much till the end, but the management leaders like it. And they like it for already 8 years – isn’t that strange?”
