Are you working on your first Ruby-on-Rails project? Did you hit a wall? Do you have something to show off? Come to this RoR Newbies Hack Session to get ideas from others in the same boat. We're all newbies so don't be shy: someone else probably has encountered the same problem as you have.

Elliot Larson & Arum Ahn of onehouse couldn't get into Mark Carranza's Rails Newbies Hack Session in time, so they volunteered their office for this Session. Thanks E & A!!!

Onehouse can accommodate attendees comfortably with tables, chairs, 23" monitors, a 42" LCD monitor, whiteboard, a projector if necessary and of course wireless connection.

This will be the first SF Ruby Meetup event, since I became an organizer, to take place on a Saturday. So leave some feedback in the comment section of this event page and let me know how it works for you.

The fun will begin at 2:00pm and will end at 5pm with the option of extending it for an hour or so if people want. Onehouse will have snacks and drinks ready, but if people want to contribute something, it would be greatly appreciated.

    I'd be interested in attending, if one of the 14 drops out.

    • “ I had to correct a couple of errors in my application which I did, especially with some great help from Marcus near the end of the day, esp. looking at rails from the programming side vs. the app. side. Also Eric gave me some good suggestions about how to generate pdfs via rails with gems and plugins which I didn't know about, through a couple of websites (like sourceforge). I'm plodding through the rails V2 skateboard book, so this really helped me with a couple of problems of my own making. Needless to say, the food and the sunny view was excellent. What started off as a nice social gathering developed into a useful Ruby workshop. ”
