Wynn Netherland joins Gregg live from Red Dirt Ruby Conference, where we get Analytical about doing test driven sysadmin with my Babushka, additing missing test helpers with Runningman, enjoying the extra speed with Cucumber 0.7, and doing the monster_mash while hacking voicemail, and editing a Tumblr theme with Thimblr.

This episode is sponsored by Red Dirt Ruby Conference. A unique, two-day conference that provides content and training in the most important areas of Ruby development.

Thimblr Jump to Story

Thimblr from jphastings is a Sinatra port of Thimble, which mocks Tumblrʼs rendering engine so you can develop your themes locally in your favorite text editor instead of that tiny little text area in the Tumblr settings screen. Thimblr even supports importing your Tumblr content and storing in a local YAML file so you can see what your site will look like with your content.
