Don‘t.
„Unforeseen Consequences“
I can not understand how a university could commit itself to rely on such external (proprietary) tools... This kind of vendor-lock-in within the teaching process would bug me both as a teacher and as a student. I built something similar (https://github.com/moschlar/SAUCE), which is open source.

At least for German signalling rules, these sites are trying to explain it in English: http://www.sh1.org/eisenbahn/index.htm or http://www.joernpachl.de/German_principles.htm (Railway Engineering professor)

It doesn't look that way - it's not mentioned in the blog post neither on Pinterest's Github page.

Therefore, I don't really understand the purpose of this blog entry. Yay, they built something. What's the use, if it's not published and usable for others, too?

This is a wonderful example of false advertising...

He's talking about very general "code reading" on the whole article and then, at the bottom, he lines out which languages he knows - and it suddenly gets disappointing for anyone outside the Ruby/JS world.

He has to be more clear about that in the headline.
