Friendly URLs

By default, Rails applications build URLs based on the primary key -- the id column from the database. Imagine we have a Person model and associated controller. We have a person record for Bob Martin that has id number 6. The URL for his show page would be:

/people/6

But, for aesthetic or SEO purposes, we want Bob's name in the URL. The last segment, the 6 here, is called the "slug". Let's look at a few ways to implement better slugs.

module Where
  class <<self
    attr_accessor :editor
    
    def is_proc(proc)
      source_location(proc)
    end
    
    def is_method(klass, method_name)
      source_location(klass.method(method_name))

What I Wish I'd Known About Equity Before Joining A Unicorn

Disclaimer: This piece is written anonymously. The names of a few particular companies are mentioned, but as common examples only.

This is a short write-up on things that I wish I'd known and considered before joining a private company (aka startup, aka unicorn in some cases). I'm not trying to make the case that you should never join a private company, but the power imbalance between founder and employee is extreme, and that potential candidates would

The Complete Guide to Nested Forms in Phoenix

I recently spent some time dealing with nested forms in Phoenix. Nested forms are great when you want to create multiple database records in a single transaction and associate them with each other. I am new to Phoenix and really struggled to find any resources that helped me with my specific problem. I decided to document what I learned in the process in hopes of helping others that are new to Elixir and Phoenix.

Here is my attempt at a one stop shop to learn everything you will need to know about nested forms. If you would like to view the GitHub repo you can check it out here.

Thanks to Heartbeat and Jose for excellent blog posts on nested forms. Also shoutout to Josh for showing me some examples at Ruby
