Making a dent in the tech universe
Sustainability in IT business. What you can do to decarbonise
Most of us are onboard with the fact that humans have been overconsuming the earth's resources at an unsustainable rate. Action from a global, government, and local government level is still unsatisfactory. Everyone needs to start doing their bit, and hopefully each little bit adds up and makes a big difference.
Tools, tips & tricks
Our dev team recently sat down to share our favourite tips, tricks and tools. This resulted in great conversations and everyone went away with more tools, and productivity or workflow tips & tricks, on their tool-belt. We would like to share these here so you can benefit too.
🚘 SmartInspect with React Native 📱
Our Rapid Projects team developed this mobile app in three months. We used React Native and found it fast and efficient. Watch a demo of SmartInspect. Hear what Naiki Pearl and Kate Norquay found as they developed using React Native.
Elixir for JavaScript and Ruby developers
This talk will be an introduction to Elixir in the form of a walk-through of a real-world application (Addressfinder).
Vim’s most magical autocomplete
Let’s jump straight to the point: Vim can autocomplete a word, but it also knows the context of where it found the keyword, and can complete the next word after it.
HTTP/2 accelerates Addressfinder
Last week we upgraded the software that powers Addressfinder. We turned on HTTP/2. It’s made the autocomplete even faster.
Adding Docker to a Rails application
This content is based on a presentation that I gave at WellRailed, a Wellington, New Zealand based Ruby on Rails meetup in December 2016.
Migrating to Medium from Tumblr
At Abletech we have been sharing our thoughts on our blog for a number of years. Recently, we have wanted to lower the barrier for our staff to contribute their knowledge back into the community. In short, our single-user Tumblr account was just not doing it for us.
