Very sad to see something with the most votes declined! I would have loved this screencast!

agile web development [updated]

2012-01-21T17:15:40-08:00

It would be awsome if you create screencasts on agile topics, such as Scrum, XP, Lean and etc.

padrino [updated]

2012-01-03T15:11:46-08:00

bashcoder said:

Interesting - I would not consider Sinatra's level of support for Padrino as any sort of factor, as Sinatra is not based on Padrino. Not sure why that would even be an issue. The reverse consideration would be quite valid, however.

. I have a suggestion for a two-part screencast: ActiveRecord vs. DataMapper.

2011-12-21T16:45:13-08:00

Joe Meirow suggested:
Part 1: ActiveRecord vs. DataMapper. This would be a quick overview of the two patterns as well as the implementations "ActiveRecord" and the "DataMapper" code that can be used with Rails. Part 2 DataMapper in Depth: PeepCode already has plenty of screencasts on ActiveRecord. This screencast would be for those who've decided that DataMapper makes sense for one or more of their projects and are moving on from Part1 (above) and now want to take a deep dive into DataMapper, specifically, configuring Rails to use it and how to interact with it from Rails code.

Download through iTunes for annual subscribers

2011-12-21T05:24:00-08:00

WG suggested:
Provide an option to download new episodes through iTunes for annual subscribers (like how screencastsonline.com does). I suggested this idea through emails and twitter several times and followed up since May 2011, but seeing that it's not done, I wanted to put it out here publicly. Providing a way to download through iTunes means easier updates for annual subscribers without having to go to individual product pages to get new episodes.

Responsive Design and Bootstrapping

2011-12-20T14:19:21-08:00

fibric suggested:
Show how to make use of i.e. Modernizr and such frameworks to best fit content on display/resolution and devices the visiter/user use to browse the web site. Make use of i.e. Twitter's Bootstrap and such frameworks to save time for styling and positioning of content.

Regular expressions screencast [updated]

2011-12-20T13:41:39-08:00

A screencast or series about using regular expressions to match patterns. Originally suggested by Pete Forde.

fibric said:

NetTuts already covered this topic and it helped allot. I believe the Video quality could become way better if PeepCode covers this topic too but I will not guess if PeepCode can lift the content quality too.

Rubinius Intro [updated]

2011-12-20T13:36:43-08:00

Something on Rubinus - from running standard ruby code in the VM, running special rubinius methods (eg threading) to adding ruby code to rubinius, or even adding C++ code to rubinius (not that I want to that - but it could be useful knowing how)

fibric said:

Rubinius looks very interesting but actually it hosts his own world like MacRuby. If Rubinius will do the next step (forward to 1.9) then it could become more interesting IMO

RubyMine for Ruby/Rails Development [updated]

2011-12-20T13:32:30-08:00

There has been a lot of talk about RubyMine in many of the ruby blogs. An some developers are jumping, specially from TextMate. It would be great to have a screencast since the user manual is somewhat poor.

fibric said:

JetBrains himself already started with Screencasts about RubyMine

MongoDB [updated]

2011-12-20T13:31:56-08:00

Jacques Crocker said:

Mongoid still has really great momentum https://github.com/mongoid/mongoid (almost 2k git watchers). Would be perfect for the screencast data modeling section I think (while still covering low level MongoDB driver)

padrino [updated]

2011-12-20T12:59:01-08:00

topfunky (admin) responded:

We really like Sinatra and use it for all our new projects.

However, we've decided that Padrino doesn't have enough support from the core Sinatra team.

We do hope to create more screencasts about how we use Sinatra, but we don't have plans to cover Padrino.

You already have a Code review for rails pdf. Having a similar pdf which is language agnostic would be great.

Publish a sproutcore screencast [updated]

2011-12-08T14:43:14-08:00

Seems very obvious to me. Looks very good, as new as possible, and hardly any good tutorials to find. This could be huge.

nginx [updated]

2011-11-25T01:05:56-08:00

Do an episode on nginx. Topics could include: - Installation & Basic Setup - Subdomains - Re-writing ( could use maintenance.html as an example ) - Load balancing ( could mention the fair balancer in there ) - Profiling / Optimization - Gotchas

Could be great with unicorn

Meet Maglev

2011-11-23T10:48:25-08:00

Michael suggested:
- Why another ruby? - Benchmarks Maglev vs...(MRI, Rubinius, Jruby) - What is the built in persistence layer? Is there a ruby library similar to mongoid or activerecord that works with it? - How do you deploy a Maglev application? - How does it scale?

The Play 2.0 framework

2011-11-16T15:07:34-08:00

Ted Wise suggested:
Please cover the Play 2.0 framework (which is still in beta). It's Java/Scala which is probably anathema around here, but it's very Rails like and uses Selenium, jQuery, etc.

django [updated]

2011-10-26T14:22:03-07:00

I have been a longtime listener of the Ruby on Rails podcasts and I've viewed the peepcode preview videos numerous times. I have yet to purchase a peepcode screencast because I'm not really interested in Ruby on Rails. I am, however, interested in Django and I would love to see some Django topics covered by Peepcode. I would subscribe for those.

Matt Stevens said:

Something on the subject of workflow and deployment would be great.

I know jQuery is all the rage but Dojo is good stuff. And I believe one or more of the guys at Sitepen.com wrote it. Would be nice to see a series of screencasts on DojoToolKit.org

Cameron Pope suggested:
The perfect compliment to the Meet Eventmachine screencast series would be a screencast on how to unit test Evented applications.

How about a screencast on chef? [updated]

2011-10-11T01:13:30-07:00

I think the chef documentation is really bad. It would be great if you walked through an example of building a slice and using Chef to bootstrap it.

You have a video showing mac app development with Xcode 3. It would be nice to have this updated for Lion, and Xcode 4. With the mac appstore out in full force, it would be nice to have a solid general tutorial on Lion cocoa development.

Enhancing CSS with LESS

2011-08-25T15:59:37-07:00

geddesign suggested:
writing CSS is a pain. LESS makes it better, especially now that it can compile on the fly in your browser during development. You could cover mixins, nested syntax, functions, math, etc.
