Workshop working title: The modern usage of Make for modern developers -
Workshop one/two sentenace description: Learn how modern developers use Make, and how it serves as a glue between multiple technologies. -
Workshop longer description: What, Make? We're not C++ developers to use make! We have rake/maven/gulp already! Surprisingly, Make can be super-useful even for modern developer. It is low-overhead, universal and flexible tool, that serves multiple purposes: 1) a glue between multiple technologies, 2) a library of shortcuts for your development tasks, 3) a lab for quick experiments before building something more solid. In the talk we're going to go through the basics of modern Make, automate few development tasks, turn with some of GitLab rake tasks into Make shortcuts and explore the results. -
Intended Audience?: Developers! -
Will this be presentation only, a laptops out session, another form of interaction, a combination etc: flexible. It can be both presentation only or a mini-workshop. -
