Jon,

It will be released in roughly 1 month.

Is there any kind of ETA on a release? I’d love to play around with this… forwarding my opinions of course :)

Phil,

The source code for the original RailsDay project should be available via the RailsDay SVN .

Like you said, the RailsDay site seems to be down…when the RailsDay site comes back up, look at one of the comments under the SVN info. Someone posted archives of each of the projects.

Hi Derek,

Will you be releasing the source for heartbeat? It looks fantastic and I would love to get my hands on the code, both to deploy and to improve my rails skills.

I tried to download from the railsday SVN servers, but they, and the site, seem to be closed.

Thanks.

Jon,

Yes – it is perfect for designers. We use it in a similar fashion for clients that want to make changes to the views.

this is just wonderful! I’ve been wanting to create something like this for our designers. So they could deploy sites after they’ve made changes.

Excellent work!

It’s tough finding a developer who doesn’t like Ruby on Rails. However, it’s also easy finding developers who think “Rails Deployment” is the next release of a horror movie series.

We’ve developed exclusively in Rails over the past 1.5 years, and a major piece missing from our development process was a simple system for deploying, managing, and monitoring our client applications.

Enter Heartbeat and one-click Capistrano deployment. With Heartbeat, you can run any of your applications’ Capistrano recipes and Rake tasks on a remote system from a single web page.

Born on RailsDay 2006, Heartbeat is helping us overcome the most difficult part of the Rails life cycle. In a couple of weeks, we hope it will do the same for you.
