What we’re about
We’re Melbourne’s community of Rubyists, Rails developers, and curious coders who love sharing knowledge, swapping ideas, and connecting over great code (and even better company).
Our meetups feature a mix of technical deep dives and real-world stories from the Ruby ecosystem. You’ll hear talks on topics like:
✨ Ruby and Rails development
⚙️ Performance tuning and database optimisation
🧪 Testing strategies and code quality
🎨 Front-end integration and developer experience
💼 Career growth, mentoring, and team collaboration
🧠 Architecture, design patterns, and developer wellbeing
Whether you’re maintaining a production Rails app, crafting gems, experimenting with Hanami, or exploring how Ruby fits into modern software workflows — you’ll find a welcoming community that values curiosity, craftsmanship, and conversation.
Come for the talks, stay for the people — and be part of Melbourne’s thriving Ruby community. ❤️
