In this episode, the Ruby Rogues speaks with Adam Cuppy. Adam is the co-founder of Zeal. Zeal is a software consultancy that specializes in Rails, React, and Elixir. In his earlier experience, he was a professional actor. Adam talks about his journey from actor to a developer, and his self-taught experience as he dived into coding for a creative company and learned about marketing. Adam is on Ruby Rouges to talks about his current talk on Rapidly Mapping API Schemas in Ruby. Adam recently presented this topic to the annual Ruby Dev Summit.

In particular, we dive pretty deep on:
