This week, I finally solved a bug on my website (It was a major problem and I was working on it for 5 weeks straight) happy for it to be over!

This week, I worked with TWO libraries I believed were complicated to use some time ago. Turns out they were easy to use(to me).

The libraries are rmagick and minimagick.

I needed to generate a signature of users in the project I'm working on and this signature needed to be an image. Both libraries are wrappers for ImageMagick and that used to scare me a bit because in my initial days in Ruby on Rails rmagick had a bad fame in the company 😆

I ended using both because it wasn't possible to install rmagick in Docker Alpine. Both libraries let me achieve the job. Both are awesome.

This week, I worked on a POC for migrating some SQL tables to MongoDB and forced myself to use Docker to do it, as I'm working on another project using Docker as well. Was super psyched to combine and use two technologies that are new to me in a single project.
