Let’s dive into code!

I love screencasts! Screencasts are an easy and fun way to learn new technologies. If you want to avoid fluff, dive directly into code… screencasts are one of the best tools to achieve it!

I was impressed with a great work done by Geoffrey Grosenbach from PeepCode or guys like Bill Dudney or Ryan Bates who publish their recordings under Pragmatic Programmer umbrella. I have bought almost all material they have produced and it was money well spent.

After watching a few of their episodes I understood I would love to follow into their footsteps and start to produce my own screencasts. A few months later, working after hours I finished my online store and recorded Stripes fundamentals.

It is the first out of a series of screencasts that map out how to use Stripes to solve everyday web application development challenges in a simple and efficient way. The whole series is based on application-centric approach where the development of an online shop application drives the coverage of Stripes.

At code quest I don’t want to focus only on one domain or technology. The upcoming screencast will be dedicated to deployment on Ubuntu. I am recording it together with my friend Piotr Maj and it should be available by the end of May. Please stay tuned!

I hope screencasts published at code quest will help developers learn in a fast and efficient way. My goal is to produce high quality stuff at a reasonable price. And my hope is that you’ll help me achieve this goal. It is an agile project and you get to help steer.

I look forward to your feedback.
