Hey, Bay Area builders and tinkerers!
While Ruby may not dominate the headlines, it's the silent force behind the Bay Area's most successful startups. From GitHub and Stripe to Chime and Stackblitz, Ruby powers teams that go HUGE with less.
Join us as we re-kindle the SF Ruby community's flame! It is a unique place to meet authors of your favorite open-source tools (or members of the Ruby core team), incredibly experienced engineers and new converts, as well as new startup founders building and experimenting with the power of Ruby and Rails. It's a chance to meet every month and make new Ruby friends.
Our meetups explore practical and explorational stories about Rails at scale, performance and maintainability, deployments, frontend, AI-powered features, and so much more—all through Ruby's uniquely productive lens.
For the first event of the year, Productboard is our gracious host!
Our special 🌟 speaker is Jason Swett, coming from Michigan!
Agenda:
5 pm Doors open, pizza
5.30 pm intro words, Irina and Productboard
5.40 Jason Swett (codewithjason.com) on How to make your tests easier to understand
6.20 Bart Agapinan (ID.me) on How to add passkeys to a Rails app (and why)
