Your Rails app needs a Life Coach

Your Rails app has worked hard and done pretty well for himself. Now it’s time to take it to the next level. Let me work with your Rails app to fulfill his hopes and dreams.

Let’s increase your app’s happiness and your happiness at the same time. Speed, features, and ease of development don’t have to be at odds with each other. It just takes a little planning. Clean code means fewer bugs and happier developers. Picking the right solution is much more important than working yourself to the bone.

Make time for what matters

We all need a little direction occasionally. Maybe your Rails app has lost track of what matters most in his life. I’ll work with you to determine what’s truly important to your app, and help you plan how to focus development energy on the crucial bits without getting crowded out by distractions.

Achieve new levels of performance

Maybe your Rails app has been feeling sluggish and unmotivated lately. That’s okay, it happens to all of us! The best optimization doesn’t involve brute force – it’s all about identifying the true pain points that will give the most bang for your buck. We’ll work to find the optimizations that are important to you, and together we’ll have the little fellow back in fighting trim in no time.

Learn new tricks

Progress is important, but chances are your Rails app has already experienced the penalties of a haphazardly-implemented feature. Having priorities in hand is the secret to adding features that fit your budget and work flawlessly. I’ll show you how much we can expect to accomplish in a given amount of time, and which corners we can safely cut to speed things up.

Out with the old

Whose closet doesn’t get a little messy when we’re busy? Your Rails app needs to focus on meeting his goals, not on the detritus of the past. I’ll help you ferret out old cruft that’s slowing you down, and remove it with a minimum of fuss. Let’s pare your code down to its gleaming core.

Protect what you care about

When your Rails app was a broke student, it was okay if he left his door unlocked. These days, it would be wise to be a little more prudent. I’ll check your application for common security flaws and help you fix them. You’ve never known how painless good security practices can be until you’ve tried it in Rails!
