Even though JavaScript (and node.js!) is/are my first programming language love(s)1, I’ve been trying to hone my skills in Ruby and Python to better merit the whole ‘full-stack’ title thing. Also because there are some really great things that python and ruby are great for that JavaScript isn’t (vice-versa for each language, really). So, I’ll occasionally be sharing some small tips/tricks I pick up along the way in these other realms.
