August 2024 meeting
Attraction Mailbox - Why I Love Action Mailbox
Cody Norman
Email is a powerful and flexible way to extend the capabilities of your Rails application. It’s a familiar and low friction way for users to interact with your app. As much as you may want your users to access your app, they may not need to. Email is a great example of focusing on the problem at hand instead of an over-complicated solution. We’ll take a deeper look at Action Mailbox and how to route and process your inbound emails.
Cody Norman is an independent Ruby on Rails consultant. He has years of experience working with early stage startups and building software teams. As a career changer, he also has a passion for working with and mentoring early career developers.
