About DevelClan

DevelClan is a platform for publishing articles on web development. Articles are categorized and subcategorized by topic for easy navigation.

The topics mainly comprise the following:

• Frontend development, using web basics: HTML , CSS , and JavaScript . Within these broad areas, each article addresses something specific.
• Backend development. The language of choice at DevelClan is Ruby , for its expressiveness and productivity. Ruby ’s slogan is “a programmer’s best friend”. The most popular framework is Ruby on Rails , which is very mature, with many years behind it and a productivity that has inspired many other frameworks in other languages. To cite a couple of examples, GitHub and Twitter were created with Ruby on Rails .
• Databases. The SQL language is widely used to query relational databases. MySQL (or MariaDB ) and PostgreSQL are the most widely used on the web.
• Version control with Git , the system that was born to organize Linux code, and today is used in virtually all web projects.
• Software Engineering. Development is not just about code. There is a science behind it that is part of the day to day in this profession.
• Hacking, because it not only serves to attack, but also to defend.
• DevOps and systems, using Linux as a base, and containers as preconfigured elements managed by Docker .

DevelClan’s articles are practical for quick answers to common problems, and contain didactic elements that help to retain what you learn.
