Friday is innovation and learning time for the Product Development team — here’s an (incomplete) list of topics team members have tackled in the last months.

  • Peek into Rust
  • (Deeper) peek into Elixir
  • Ansible
  • A closer look at K3s
  • Talk preparations for conferences
  • bash & awk catch up
  • TDD hands-on with phoenix
  • Documentation grooming
  • Open source contributions
  • Prototyping of new (unasked for) features in the product
  • Open source work (e.g. Knigge)
  • Playing around with interesting tech (earthly.dev, Dhall, neo4j)
  • Playing around with interesting languages (Rust, ReasonML, PureScript)
  • Improvements to internal tooling (private hex repos)
  • Experimenting for some Elixir DDD micro-framework thing
  • Nerves based door opener
  • Internal operations tool for managing our services and projects (parc-cli)
  • An OAuth enabled account system
  • Looking into Go game engines
  • GraphQL in Elixir
  • Reading books

All these projects have been demoed to the team on our Friday demo. Looking forward to many, many more demos of great stuff!
