Presenting SVG graphs #95

Closed Rhiana closed 6 years ago

Rhiana commented 6 years ago

Recently I wrote a Ruby presenter class that generated and SVG graph. I hadn't done that before and learnt a lot along the way so wanted to share the process. This would be 20-30mins I think and at a fairly beginner to mid level.

For more details here is a blog post I wrote about it: Presenting SVG graphs

Hi @Rhiana, I'll be subbing in for Toby next RORO, 28th of March 2018. I would love to give you a short introduction prior to your talk. Would you be able to provide a short bio that reflects your interest in the topic you are presenting and the name of your talk. Also, please let me know whether you will be bringing your computer to present your slides. We will have all the equipment necessary to project your slides. I will be at Zendesk next Wednesday around 5:30pm to help speakers test out their slides if they choose to do so.

Hi @NamibiaLT No worries, my slides will be online so either way. I generally bring my own laptop with a backup though just in case. Would a windows or mac machine be easier with the set up there?

In terms of bio/intro something like:

Rhiana currently works as a front-end Ruby on Rails Developer at reinteractive. Coming from a background in education and psychology, she's given talks here in the past on making the web accessible for people with disabilities. Today her talk is on another side of psychology, which is making graphs to show off all the data you just collected, but, thankfully, using Ruby on Rails. Here is Rhiana on "Presenting SVG graphs"

Hi @Rhiana! Either type of computer should be fine. Backups are always a good idea though. Also, how do I pronounce your name? Please let me know when you see me tomorrow :-)
