RailsConf 2023 - A Picture Is Worth a 1000 Lines of Code by Rich Steinmetz

Let me show you how I turned my "two left hands" into eight superpower tentacles, going from "I can't draw" to visualizing more and less abstract concepts all over the internet. A simple visual framework can let you do the same rather quickly because this is what your brain is wired to do: process and generate images. The coding education industry and workplace communication mainly consist of simplified code examples, boring text walls, and sometimes never-ending speeches from the loudest people in meetings. All it takes to make abstract concepts visible is identifying your visual thinking type and empowering yourself with a reproducible process to make your communication more understandable, memorable, unique, collaborative, and fun.
