About

RubyConf is the longest-running conference dedicated to the Rails framework, bringing together developers from around the world to share knowledge, collaborate, and shape the future of the framework. As the final RubyConf, our 2026 conference will be a landmark event, celebrating nearly two decades of innovation and community.
