Rock U - Content Management - Two Paradoxes
Transcribed Video Content
So let's talk about two paradoxes that exist in Rock. We've already seen that Rock is made up of Lego blocks. We've covered that and it becomes pre configured in a certain way. Now, of the paradoxes is just because we pre configure it that way that you can't change it. A lot of times that we've given it to you out of the box but now you're thinking in the box.
And so that's one of the paradoxes you'd have to get over. So just think that it comes pre configured in one way but you can change it and build it in lots of different ways. So that's the first paradox. The second paradox that we often hear is that you have to be a developer to use Rock. And that's saying if you wanna change these Legos, you have to go back to the plastics that Legos are made out of.
That you have to be a plastics engineer to play with Legos and that's simply not true. To be able to do some advanced things and to build your own blocks, yeah, you you might need some development skills but you don't have to be a plastics engineer to reconfigure it to meet your needs. So in a sense, we provide you Legos but we don't glue them all together for you and that's where a lot of products are different. That they give you something out of the box but the Legos are all glued together and we've chosen not to do so. So the two paradoxes are that it ships out of the box but not to think in the box and the second one is you can extend it in lots of different ways without being a developer but if you are a developer you can do lots of cool things.
