CSS Variables and SASS
Both, SASS and CSS support variables, and of course they are not the same:

jRubyConf.eu and eurucamp 2015
The first time I found out about eurucamp was during the euruko 2011. Some people talked about this “unconference” close to the venue that a few people had organized. The tickets for the euruko had been sold out too quickly and everyone who could not buy one was invited to meet there instead. At that euruko I gave my first real talk and because of that I was way too nervous to take the U8 to visit them. I should have done it.
React Berlin April
React is currently the hottest JavaScript framework out there. And shockingly it had no usergroup here in Berlin. But luckily this changed last week with the first meeting of React Berlin in our office.
Ruby Usergroup February
Yesterday we had the awesome chance to host the Rug:B again. And as always, it was packed. It was really great to see so many people in our office.

This weekend is the JSConf.eu weekend. And because of that this week is jsfest.berlin week. Tons of events all over the city.
Hints for your first live coding talk
At this year’s eurucamp I gave a talk about how to create a game with Ruby. I wanted to prove that it’s easy to do so with Gosu, so I did a daring thing: I proposed a live coding talk. My first live coding talk ever(!).
