Building the Future with Ruby

November 19-20, 2025 • Fort Mason, San Francisco

SF Ruby is excited to invite you to our premier event: the San Francisco Ruby Conference

We're gathering ~600 Rubyists in San Francisco: where new Ruby dreams are born every day. The two unforgettable days await—where you’ll forge connections with ambitious founders, engineers scaling the largest Ruby-powered products, and open source authors shaping what’s next for Ruby and Rails.

Demos from the fast-paced Ruby startups, hands-on workshops on hot topics, and deep conversations in the hallway track. Join a creative, generous, and unapologetically mischievous Ruby community. This is where you belong!
