CI, Release Engineering for Node.js (and Build Tools too!)
Details
Flite has offered to sponsor this event and speak at this event.
Tentative Agenda:
6:30 - Meet and Greet with Food and Drinks
7:ish- Clay Smith (Flite) "How (and how not) to build JavaScript: How Flite got rid of Ant and moved to Grunt. Clay's a front-end engineer at Flite and a refugee from .NET programming in the Midwest."
8:ish- Ben Lindsey, Lead Engineer at Vungle, a mobile video advertising platform, will discuss continuous deployment with node and chef in the cloud. Test driven development and zero downtime deploys have been core principles of our team since the beginning. The combination of teamcity, git, and mocha has been invaluable for delivering high quality software in a rapidly changing marketplace.
Before 9: David J. Kordsmeier - Brief, quick overview of the "State of Node.js Build Tools": http://storify.com/dkords/state-of-node-js-build-tools/slideshow
At our last TDD with Node.js meetup, build tools played prominently in the discussion, as did CI. If you've got some experience in these areas, work on a product or service in these areas, or have some deep insights, please send me a message about speaking.
