presentation slides: "make and redo For Building and Automation"
- Given at DevOps West Michigan on 2014-11-10.
Abstract
"While make is usually described as a build system, it's a more general tool. This talk will cover automating tasks that may look nothing like rebuilding programs, working within its conceptual model, and how to avoid common mistakes. It will also give an intro to redo, a similar (but less well known) tool that addresses many of make's issues. Comparing the two will bring their common design into focus, and help with learning to use either effectively."
Slides and presenter's notes
This presentation uses markdown_to_reveal and pandoc to
generate reveal.js slides (slides.html
) from the markdown source
(slides.md
).
The source also has presenter's notes included as inline comments.
Reading the slides.md
file directly is recommended, because the slides
themselves are pretty minimal.
