Looking back at the 20th Magento Rhein-Main meetup

Looking back at the 20th Magento Rhein-Main meetup

Yesterday, the meetup took place at AOE in Wiesbaden again. A thank-you here for providing the rooms and the wasabi nuts. I think I am the only one who always eats those :-)

There was a talk on "Continuous integration in an open source project". Since I was the one giving the talk, you are welcome to guess which project it was. Of course, it was about n98-magerun. Unfortunately, Tom was not there. He built a large part of the setup. Sending greetings to Cuba here. Broadly speaking, the setup consists of the following tools.

One tool I had forgotten was SensioLabsInsight. Since the slides shown consist almost entirely of screenshots, they are only interesting to a limited extent. However, they do provide a good general overview of all the tools used.

To finish, there was a discussion/exchange on the following topics:

  • Is Magento 2 suitable for medium-sized businesses?
  • Who is already working with Magento 2?
  • How do agencies deal with Magento 2 and their customers?
  • Are Enterprise partners simply talking up Magento 2?

Personally, I really enjoyed the exchange again.

Next time, we will try to announce the topics in advance again. The plan is for Fabrizio and yours truly to prepare a kind of live coding session. Everyone is supposed to create a Magento 2 module. The shop installation will also be carried out live. I am very curious to see what will happen. There will probably also be a talk by a shop operator on "deployment" in a production system.
