Babun - a Windows shell you will love, finally!

Tools-in-Action

Methodology & DevOps

Room 4A - Metrosoft

Monday at 18:30 - 19:00

The truth is really brutal. Whether we like it or not, most of us develop software using the Windows OS. Corporate policies, etc. we all know that story. How can we survive it? How to be as productive as on a Linux/Mac machine without spending hours on tweaking the Windows Registry or hacking some Visual Basic scripts?

In this session we will have a quick look at the babun project http://babun.github.io - a Windows console you will love from the very first second. It features oh-my-zsh, package-manager, programming tools and much more.

Babun has been downloaded by 50K developers in the first months and rocks the Windows world ever since. Interested? Come by and befriend your Windows (however bad it sounds)...

Finally, he is very keen on tutoring, presenting and live coding, especially in a non-fluffy way.
