Technical guides for Ruby deployment and Perl 6 programming
Technical tutorials have been released addressing specific software deployment and programming workflows.
One guide focuses on using Kamal to deploy Rails applications with locally built Ruby images. This method serves as a workaround when official Docker images are delayed following a security release. By building a custom Dockerfile based on Debian, developers can use local images with the same name as official ones to ensure security without modifying the application's primary Dockerfile.
Another tutorial provides an introduction to application programming using Perl 6. The guide demonstrates how to create a dice-rolling application, transitioning from a console-based tool to a graphical user interface using the GTK::Simple module. It covers environment preparation, including the installation of libgtk headers and the use of the App::Assixt module to manage application skeletons and metadata.
