Introduction to Go

jared@koumentis.com

05.23.2017

I'm interested in learning more about Go. Plenty of smart people seem to really like it, and it's prevalence in projects like Docker and Kubernetes certainly draw a lot of interest.

I'd be interested in an introduction and maybe an exploration of ideal use cases for Go, particularly around backend and systems programming.

Cryptography Tutorial

Bret M. Larsen

04.03.2017

I would like to know more about Cryptography in general.

There are a bunch of thing people are using like https://veracrypt.codeplex.com/ and I don't know how to use them or how to implement such things using Cryptography algorithms, like AES.

  • How to implement an app with a good Cryptography?
  • Should I use VeraCrypt or similar?

A week of content about Cryptography in general and algorithms would be good!

Thanks!

Glimmer and TypeScript

Benjamin Rosas

04.06.2017

Summary

A course on the newly unveiled GlimmerJS. Glimmer is a React-like DOM-rendering engine in which components are written in TypeScript. Glimmer emerged from the Ember.js framework and will play a large role in Ember's future.

Motivation

React has (rightfully) received a lot of focus. It is fast, lightweight, flexible and very popular. However there are also a million books and videos and courses on React out in the world. Glimmer is the kind of thing (like Elm and Phoenix) that is cutting-edge and in line with the kind of unique material offered at DailyDrip. A Glimmer course can also be an excuse to introduce TypeScript (a progressively typed superset of JavaScript from Microsoft that is gaining a lot of attention (eg. see Angular 2.0)).

Drawbacks

  • Glimmer is super new and likely going to change quickly over the next year or two.
  • Glimmer is not very popular (yet) and so the demand for and recognition of its virtues may be muted.
  • TypeScript may be a turn-off by those who prefer either the non-typed JavaScript, or the strong-typed Elm.

Alternatives

  • Just teach Ember (status quo).
  • Dedicated TypeScript material instead of clumping it with Glimmer.
  • Wait and see where Glimmer is going before committing resources to it.
