Cracking Open The National Treasure With Ruby!

After an extended break Ruby Ireland returns with a strong pipeline of talks over the next few months. We kick off this series by catching up with TheProductWorks (http://www.theproduct.works/), who've brought the Ruby language to server rooms that may surprise you...

Opening the NTMA with Ruby by Conor Wogan (https://twitter.com/conorwogan) - Last year, TheProductWorks teased us with details of an exciting Ruby-based project in a traditional Irish corporate body, without being able to disclose who that was. Well, they've just completed the project for that client - the NTMA (http://www.ntma.ie/). It was a big success and they’ll be sharing their story with us.
