Hack week

We spent the last week in Vienna with Julian Rubisch to hack on Avo. All three of us worked on a totally new thing and came out with pretty cool products.

Julian worked on Avo Meta which is an addon that will enable you to have virtual columns for records without migrations.

Paul worked on a sweet RBAC (Role-Based Access control) module for Avo where you'll be able to give granular controls to Avo users from the UI.

I worked on a collaboration feature which will enable users to write comments and leave reactions on records.

And together we also build a PoC for an array driver for Avo where you'll be able to create resources on more than just Active Record models 🤯

Office Hours

We'll demo some of these in our next Office Hours session on Friday, so join us here.

Still looking for a dev

We're still looking for our next team mate to help us build these kinds of things and more.
So if you love Avo, you love dev-tools, you know Hotwire (mid to advanced level), and want to build things for other developers, write to us.

New avodemo.com

We revamped the avodemo website to add more example apps. Go and browse them to see what more can Avo do for you.

Good enough testing workshop

Only 7 spots are still available for the Good Enough Workshop so jump on this deal if you want to get better at testing and code organization in general.

Hotwire Native content 🤩

Yaro is pushing out Hotwire Native content like craaazy. If you want to see the cutting edge of Rails and Native, and want tips and tricks from production apps, check out SupeRails.com

Have a nice end of year

December is a great time to wind down, relax, and reflect on the things you achieved this past year.

We hope you have a great time with family and close ones and you'll get your social juices and energy levels up for another great year.

Thanks for being awesome!

Adrian and Paul ✌️
