Here's the video of the other lunch&learn mini-talk I did while visiting Hashrocket. The topic is building and packaging Ruby libraries.

Wanna get brunch?
May I write to you? I curate a weekly newsletter called BRUNCH. Every Sunday you'll get a short email with a few handpicked links to articles, videos, and other resources that I think are useful to discerning developers. I'll also keep you updated on what I've been publishing lately.
Very nice talk. For the applications versus libraries discussion, one thing I felt you all were reaching at is that apps are use-case oriented whereas libraries are all-case oriented. That’s where the beauty of facades come in. Your app, using a GitHub library, might have the use case of
commit_and_push(msg, branch)which wraps multiple library methods.Also, I love the SWS.new_sandwich over SWS::Sandwich. Good example of how the Law of Demeter doesn’t necessarily apply to methods.
