Merb Dependencies and Bundler: Conquered! (Screencast)

A lot of people have recently been expressing that, in general, they quite enjoy working with Merb. The only real pain (for me as well) has been dealing with all the dependencies. Well, fixing all those shenanigans has been the focus of this past week. I, for one, am quite happy with the new bundling solution that has been released with Merb 1.0.5. Mad props to Yehuda for all the hard work put into this.

About

Sup all? This is my personal blog (me being Carl Lerche, in case you weren’t aware). I build web apps!

I currently work for Engine Yard as a software engineer. They’ll solve all of your rails hosting woes. I’m not just saying that because I work there. I’ve used them personally before and have recommended them numerous times before becoming an employee.

I like working on open source projects. I currently commit to Merb and DataMapper.
