On this site I will focus on providing simple examples that help you get started on a particular topic. I will focus on Ruby on Rails, MySQL, Ubuntu, Ruby and WordPress (php) related code and syntax.

The intention for this site is quick and easy sample code and syntax reminders. I frequently forget the basic syntax of some thing I don’t use frequently and at times find it hard to find the simple basic information I want. Often I find examples that are more complex than I need. Those resources are certainly very useful. This site aims to just provide easy syntax or tips that can slip your mind occasionally to hopefully make coding more fun and less of programming is for folks who are thrilled when a yet again they are reminded they are missing a bracket or a semicolon.

The site started in the Radiant CMS (a Ruby on Rails open source, freeware, CMS) but it was not the right fit so I moved it to WordPress.

The site is by John Hunter a management consultant, information technology program manager that codes and manages web servers a bit. As you could guess based on the topics covered here, I primarily work with Ruby on Rails and MySQL and use Ubuntu for development (I have moved to Malaysia and have switched to using Mac for development at least for the time being – I really think I like Ubuntu better, but the Mac Air is pretty awesome and I am giving the Mac environment a test). I use Ubuntu for my production servers. I also use WordPress a fair amount so am able to work with php some, but I try to limit it as much as possible.
