For one of my projects I write documentation using AsciiDoc. Sometimes I use IntelliJ Idea for this. Up till now, Idea used to treat AsciiDoc files (which I usually name with .adoc extension) as normal txt files. Yesterday, when I opened one of my AsciiDoc files in Idea, I was very surprised to learn that there is a plugin which can help me with the edition of such file. I installed it, and... well, I'm excited to tell you it works very good!

Valuable Javadocs are hard to find. This blog post presents some really stupid, unnecessary and irritating Javadocs that I found when browsing some code.

Want to have always the latest documentation and database schema available? Then build it on your CI!

So, I've fallen in love... With Asciidoc And Slidy! :) They let me create nice, portable presentations in no time.

...M$ Powerpoint? No, thanks. :)

One day I started to experiment with visualization of test dependencies. I thought that maybe Graphviz can help to provide some nice diagrams that would help me see instantly what went wrong, and why some tests are skipped. In this post I present my achievements so far.

The source code is available at github. Enjoy !
This post shows how to generate nice database diagrams using SchemaSpy, HSQLDB and Groovy. And, what is crucial, to do so in programmatic way, that is without clicking any GUI.

So I became a cook... It is rather surprising, because my kitchen-fu is limited to boiling water. :) But well, life is unpredictable, you know - and so now I'm busy preparing recipes for Gradle users. In other words, I'm taking care of the Gradle Cookbook.
