Past

Time for a little retrospective on what I learned during 2011.

Technologies I learned and improved skills in:

• Gradle – build and release tool.
• Groovy – dynamic programming language that runs on JVM
• Coherence – distributed cache
• Grails – web framework that runs on JVM. Groovy and Spring paired nicely together
• Gaelyk – another web framework
• GAE (Google App Engine) – cloud platform from Google
• Objective-C and iOS development
• Scala and Clojure, programming languages that runs on JVM

I did some research into Creativity and Motivation that resulted in few posts.

Future

This year I will focus more on functional languages and functional style of programming.

Main target this year for me is the work on GigReflex, Service that I work on with my friend Mike. Service will be deployed on one of the available PaaS cloud services running Grails web application framework.

Bye, bye 2011.

2012, here I come.
