Lessons Learned in July and August 2015

Due to some heavy vacationing and a special project situation, this article covers my lessons-learned for both July and August 2015.

versioneye can be linked to public projects, for example on Github, and notifies about new versions of the used libraries.
At the HackCamp 4 in Wolfsburg, I learned a lot of things. The most impact in my everyday life had AnkiDroid, a flash card app that is perfect for me.
I now use OneNote as a project overview tool and configured it as a canban board- like cockpit of all my current tasks and projects.
Since recently, I*m working in a project that actively uses git for version control. Finally I’m learning how to work with git in a real project with real problems.
I added Shariff buttons to my personal page and the HackCamp page using this drupal module. Shariff lets visitors share content from the site via Twitter, Google+ and the other usual social networks while protecting the privacy of the visitor. With other solutions, the social networks get notified when a user views a page with a share-button, even when the user doesn’t click this button. That way, a profile of specific users is easily generated. To avoid this, Shariff acts as a proxy and only sends data to the social networks if the user wants to use them.
