I’m Alison King, a graphic design instructor that also teaches web design at the Art Institute of Phoenix. Several of the Refresh Phoenix members here have passed through my doors at some point or another, probably for Photoshop class. It really pleases me to see you guys getting out there and contributing to the community and I’m sure I’ll be calling on you for help or maybe to throw a few jobs your way.

THIS PAGE HAS MOVED Please check out the AZ on Rails wiki for all new information This page => Jason Warner is attempting to start a local Ruby On Rails group (). There has been talk on the PhoenixRubyUsersGroup mailing list about this. I think that as Ruby, Rails and the Valley continue to grow that there is room for both a Ruby and a Rails group.

I started dabbling in the web around 1997 or so, updating a friend’s company site. From then on it was more sites and personal pages. Refresh Phoenix has been long overdue (in my opinion), and I am excited to see where we can go from here!

One thing I've grown found of is unit tests, and testing in general. I especially like the idea of defining project requirements using verifiable/falsifiable descriptions. The basic idea is that an application should have sufficient use cases or user stories to describe the primary behavior and feature set.
