Feed Description: Jared's weblog.
The web site was created after the launch of the book "Ship It!" and discusses issues from Continuous Integration to web hosting providers.
Earlier this year at a NFJS tour date I got a JMatter demo from the author, Eitan Suez. It was quite amazing. It reminded me of the first time I saw Dave Thomas give a Rails demo.
Rails (to horribly oversimplify) creates a GUI for you based on your database schema. JMatter looks at your Java objects instead. And the GUI is pretty slick. (If you don't like screenshots, then check out movie.)
Let me say this. If you are doing Java application development, you owe it to yourself to check out JMatter.
And, as an additional selling point, unlike Glenn Vanderburg, my face isn't in the demo. :)
