Ruby on Rails is my go to framework for complex web applications. Especially in an agile workflow. Having to figure out its ins and outs, I can help you figure them out as well. In broad terms, I can help you with: - upgrading, from rails 2.3.x to 3.x to 4.x - best practices - knowing how to use plain ruby in rails - background processing - basically everything you can think of in rails

Ruby has a lot of areas in which it is a very good option, and a lot in which its not. Knowing its strengths and weaknesses is vital for your happiness. I can help you with: - installation guidance, be it manual, with rvm or rbenv - any project in which you are using vanilla ruby - debugging and ways to help you have more insight into your code - where to look for and decide what gems to use, and how to figure out how they work - last but not least, testing testing testing

I can help you with: - DOM manipulation & debugging - fetching, using and sending data (through an API) - functional or object oriented programming with javascript - template engines - complex one page applications in angularJs, including authentication, API consumption, best practices

At a first glance HTML/CSS can be pretty straight forward. Once you get your hands dirty, you can end up in situations where its not. I can help you with - troubleshoot HTML and CSS problems, media queries or cross browser inconsistencies. - using different HTML and CSS processors, like Haml for html or Sass for css - responsive design, with or without a html/css framework like Bootstrap, Zurb or any other grid framework.
