Developer/instructor Daniel Coellar will demonstrate GeneXus, an IDE for Ruby and other languages, by building a small invoicing application from scratch in Ruby. He will also show how the product uses patterns to audit any table at the field level without changing or having access to the original source. The demo will be followed by a discussion with Rick Zachmann, a developer who has used the product to solve real-world business problems.

PowerPoint/Keynote slides will be banned for the evening unless required during Q&A.
