SUMMARY:Upgrading Legacy Rails Applications to Rails 3
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Clinton N. Dreisbach (Relevance, Inc.). Smart d
 evelopers have been using Ruby on Rails to rapidly build web application
 s for over 5 years now. Cutting-edge projects have aged into old, moldy,
  legacy apps. Rails 3 and Ruby 1.9 offer performance improvements and ne
 w features that are guaranteed to take the squeak out of that old wheel 
 and grease the tracks of new development.

SUMMARY:Building Bulletproof Views
DESCRIPTION:Presented by John Athayde (LivingSocial), Bruce Williams (Li
 vingSocial). The Rails View layer is the Wild West. Bad mustaches, crazy
  fights over simple things, and complete and utter confusion abound. Whe
 n do we use a helper or a presenter? How do we keep logic and markup sep
 arate? What's this here new fangled boilerplate and HTML5/CSS3 thing?

SUMMARY:SOLID Design Principles Behind The Rails 3 Refactoring
DESCRIPTION:Presented by José Valim (Plataforma Tec). A huge step forwar
 d in the third version of the Rails 3 framework is the modularity it pro

 e it easier to extend or modify Rails to suit our application's needs.

SUMMARY:Why You Should Never Use An ORM
DESCRIPTION:Presented by John Nunemaker (OrderedList, Inc.). Having buil
 t two object mappers in Ruby (MongoMapper and ToyStore), I would like to
  throw out a crazy thought. What if, on your next project, you ditch the
  ORM.  No ActiveRecord. No DataMapper. No anything. Just you and a lower
  level driver, whispering sweet nothings into Ruby classes and modules. 
 Could you? Would you? DARE you?

SUMMARY:Double-Shipping Software for Profit

 rastructures, and talking about the impressively stupid decisions we've 
 made.

SUMMARY:Sass: The Future of Stylesheets
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Chris Eppstein (Caring.com). Let's face it. CSS
  is dumb. There is no such thing as a DRY CSS file and stylesheets are o
 ften the biggest blemish in an otherwise beautifully coded app. Sass is 
 the future of stylesheets. Rails 3.1 includes it by default and the W3C 
 is adding concepts from Sass to CSS itself.

 k for building web-based systems, but many of us don't have much experie

SUMMARY:Building Rails Apps for the Rich Client
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Yehuda Katz (Strobe, Inc.). We all know that Ra
 ils is great for building traditional web applications that serve dynami
 c HTML pages. But more and more, people are reaching to other tools, lik
 e Node.js, when they build web applications with a lot of logic in the c
 lient. People often use the argument that when you remove the view helpe
 rs, there isn't much of value left in Rails.
