It's the first Ruby conference in the Bay since 2014, and it has a unique focus on startups. If you want to see companies choosing Ruby and Rails for new products today, join in!

We're sponsored by Chime, Bolt.new, Cisco, Gusto, Intercom, Temporal, Omada Health, Avo and many more. sfruby.com

If you can’t make it to this conf and live in the Bay Area, you should checkout the monthly SF Ruby meetups.

But you really should go to this conference.

Back when I used to go to conferences, I realized that all talks fell into two categories: (1) side-projects and (2) sales pitches

Cool new language? Side-project

How I built X in Y days? Sales pitch for the cloud provider they used

Keynote? Sales pitch (buy my course!)

Why you're doing X wrong? Sales pitch (come work for us!)

How <bigco> sped up our API: Side-project (the feature isn't in prod and never will be)

Hard to imagine conferences got good at some point. Did they?
