Webinars in the upcoming period

  • Reading time:10 mins read

My last two webinars were a great success, and this is not only judging from my angle. Attendees were very happy with them, and the feedback I received was overwhelmingly positive. I’ve got a lot of inquiries about repeating them, and I also got a few ideas for new ones that would allow you to build on top of the knowledge gained in the first two.

So, today I am announcing the schedule for the webinars for the next three months.

Webinar: CI/CD from AL developer’s shoes

  • Reading time:3 mins read

I am postponing this webinar! It appears that it coincides directly with a webinar held by Arend-Jan Kauffmann, so I’ll announce different dates for this one soon.

This webinar is moved to May, please check the sidebar.

After two very successful webinars about Git internals and Git branching models and strategies, I am now announcing the next one, titled CI/CD from AL developer’s shoes.

When talking about CI/CD, one word typically pops to mind: pipelines. But pipelines is just one aspect of this much wider and bigger topic. Let me just say this: Continuous integration was conceived a long time before anyone was thinking of pipelines. Continuous integration and delivery are sets of practices, a philosophy if you want, that must go through into every pore of the development process before pipelines can make much sense.

And while previous two webinars were almost agnostic of AL, and were presenting Git and related processes from nearly a pure Git perspective, this webinar has AL in central focus, and presents this important topic from the angle of an AL developer.

Webinar: Git branching models and strategies

  • Reading time:2 mins read

A few days ago I’ve announced that there will be a new series of webinars. The last webinar was a success. Apart from a few people complaining that I talked fast, and that there was too much content, I got pretty good comments. People felt quite happy with the content and that the value they received was worth the money they invested.

One thing I’ve learned was that you want to learn more about various branching models and strategies. One thing is talking about Git from the technical angle – that’s what the last webinar was about; this time I am focusing on the strategy, how to make Git work inside your organization and how to organize your repository and workflow.

Schedule for the period ahead

  • Reading time:4 mins read

Happy New Year everyone, with a little delay. I was busy in the first two weeks of this year preparing and delivering the “Leveraging Git” webinar. It turned out to be quite a success, but it also prevented me from doing my live session last Friday.

But this short break doesn’t mean I am not going to get busy with my blog and live blog again. This is what’s coming up.

Webinar: Leveraging Git

  • Reading time:2 mins read

It’s been a few days that I announced the “Leveraging Git” webinar on my Twitter and LinkedIn and I hope nobody will mind if I announce it on my blog.

So, here we go.

Every year I deliver between five to ten trainings. This year, I delivered a grand total of zero, due to the coronavirus outbreak. Times are changing, and I need to adapt. So, following the example set by my two friends, Waldo and AJ, who have already delivered webinars, I have decided to try the same.

The webinar focuses on Git as an essential development tool, rather than just a way to replace those ugly //BugFix.425> code annotations we were all used to in C/AL. Apart from creating a branch (when absolutely necessary), committing (often rarely), and perhaps merging (once in a while, being scared of it), most developers don’t do much more. Many don’t even know what power lurks beneath.

This webinar sheds light on Git, explains its internals, and arms you with new tools and knowledge to take Git to the next level, a level where not only you are using Git, but where you are leveraging it, day in, day out.
