## Conference talks
- **Herb to ReActionView: A New Foundation for the View Layer** by Marco Roth ([watch](https://youtu.be/L7WpwtqHn_g))
  This talk is the conclusion of a journey I’ve been sharing throughout 2025. At RubyKaigi, I introduced Herb: a new HTML-aware ERB parser and tooling ecosystem. At RailsConf, I released developer tools built on Herb, including a formatter, linter, and language server, alongside a vision for modernizing and improving the Rails view layer.
- **Ruby & AI conversation** by Obie Fernandez ([blog post](https://obie.medium.com/ruby-was-ready-from-the-start-4b089b17babb))
  A conversation about the intersection of Ruby and AI technologies, exploring opportunities and challenges.
- **RubyLLM: One API, One Person, One Machine for AI** by Carmine Paolino ([watch](https://youtu.be/y535u1EWqAg))
  The Merchants of Complexity have sold the AI world a lie. You need their frameworks. Their SDKs. Their enterprise architectures. Bullshit. AI today is just API calls. That's it. And when the game becomes building products instead of training models, complexity is death and simplicity is everything. Rails proved it. RubyLLM: one API for every model, every vendor. One developer on one machine serving thousands. While Python developers debug their 14-line "Hello World," we're shipping. Ruby's time in AI isn't coming - it's here.
- **Rails X: Shaping the Future of Rails Together** by Vladimir (Vova) Dementyev ([watch](https://youtu.be/hP4SkKH4IsA))
  Vladimir Dementyev explores what a future version of Rails needs to become—and who's actually building it. Drawing from community feedback, competitor analysis (yes, Laravel comes up), and years of open source maintenance at Evil Martians, this keynote examines where Rails falls short today: front-end instability, missing starter kits, lack of official UI components, and the modularization problem. The talk covers concrete technical solutions already available (Vite Rails, Bundle Bun, Action Cable Next, Active Job continuations) and predicts what Rails must embrace: better developer tooling, AI-native features, multiple front-end options beyond Hotwire, and accessible onboarding for "vibe coders." Includes a live demo of Rails running entirely in the browser via WASM, with AI-assisted feature development through Bolt. The conclusion: Rails X isn't waiting on core team approval. It's the messy, collaborative ecosystem the community is already building.
- **Play with your code** by Rachael Wright-Munn ([watch](https://youtu.be/ltYep_SOjNg))
  Why are programming games more fun than our day jobs? We're going to dig into this exact question and see what lessons we can learn from them, and how we can bring it back to our developer experience. Also, we're going to talk about some rad programming games you should play!
- **How to open-source your Rails startup** by Sam Poder ([watch](https://youtu.be/Y_J84x5ePUs))
  As Rails developers, we develop on the shoulders of giants. We can do what we can do because of the work of thousands of open source contributors; I want to encourage more developers to give back through open sourcing their work. This also isn't a subject talked about often and having just taken a codebase from open to closed source, I can offer a unique perspective. I remember struggling with a lack of resources of the subject when we started the project. Hopefully this talk can make it easier for the next person who open sources their codebase.
- **Master the Rails Asset Pipeline: Best Practices for Apps & Gems** by Adrian Marin ([watch](https://youtu.be/AFpbFXPBs3w))
  I toyed around with asset handling a lot in the last 4 years. I started in the pre-webpacker era, and came all the way to importmaps, esbuild and vite. I ship a gem (Avo), which is used in hundreds of different applications with different asset pipeline configurations, and use several techniques to ship my assets. Now I'm developing a plugin system and have hit all the roadblocks I can hit and have a better understanding of how things work.
- **ZJIT: The Future of Ruby Performance** by Takashi Kokubun ([watch](https://youtu.be/XSdBCKepWHM))
  Since Rails 7.2 enabled YJIT by default, it has been widely adopted by the Ruby community, delivering a 10-20% speedup in various production workloads. To enhance Ruby's speed even further, we're developing the next generation of YJIT for Ruby 3.5: ZJIT. In this talk, we'll delve into the exciting future of Ruby performance that ZJIT will unlock.
- **Real-time collaboration with Rails, AnyCable and Yjs** by JP Camara ([watch](https://youtu.be/J68QOBLEItY))
  Real-time collaboration is a powerful tool for web apps, but difficult to implement. Most Ruby developers lack CRDT exposure and collaborative software challenges like conflict resolution and distributed consistency. This talk shows how to leverage Rails while adding sophisticated collaborative features using AnyCable to boost ActionCable performance and Yjs to simplify collaborative editing. I've specifically been implementing this approach in a production Rails setting, giving me a solid perspective on the challenges involved.
- **Start Writing Ruby (Stop Using Classes)** by Dave Thomas ([watch](https://youtu.be/sjuCiIdMe_4))
  We are writing our Ruby code wrongly. We're using classes as the unit of design; we needn't, and we shouldn't. We use design patterns as recipes; they're largely irrelevant. We come up with arcane project structures and convoluted deployment systems; we needn't. For the last half-decade, I've been writing Ruby very differently to my previous style. Almost no classes. Creating structure as it grows, rather than before I start. Drastically cutting down dependencies. The result: my code seems drastically easier to write, maintain, and reuse. I'd like the opportunity the spread the word.
- **From code to customers: technical marketing for people who'd rather be building** by Colleen Schnettler ([watch](https://youtu.be/xP86mvtqEh0))
  Too many brilliant Rails developers build great products and then quit when customers don't appear. They're missing one skill: marketing. I want to change that. The Rails renaissance is here (huge thanks to Evil Martians!), and I believe helping Rails builders become successful entrepreneurs is crucial for our community's future. This might be the conference's most impactful talk. Why me? I'm a technical founder who's built three startups and now coach technical founders on marketing. I've lived this journey and help others navigate it daily.
- **The Thin CLIent Approach** by Jeremy Evans ([watch](https://youtu.be/JmmtO8vChyA))
  This presentation will discuss a novel approach to CLI development, where the command line arguments are passed to an endpoint instead of being parsed by the client program, and the advantages and disadvantages doing so. It will discuss the development of a new command line argument parsing library, cross compiling client line programs, and how this approach enabled usage of the CLI without installation, by integrating support for it into a web application.
- **The Role of Software Design in an AI World** by Sarah Mei ([watch](https://youtu.be/gTHmwQviVI8))
  Ruby devs, like all devs, are nervous about their worth in an AI world. This talk gives them reason to be optimistic, & will start to open for them a vista in which they are enhanced by AI rather than being replaced. For 10+ years I've spoken, written, & thought deeply about software design. For the last 6 months I've worked with code assistants to see what they can do in real Rails codebases - not new projects or toy apps. I've got some initial conclusions that are worth sharing widely.
- **Sidekiq: Open Source, Business and the Future** by Mike Perham ([watch](https://youtu.be/4H5V6gnG9Oo))
  Learn how to build a successful open source business model from the creator of Sidekiq.
- **Derailing Our Application: How and Why We Are Decoupling Our Code from Rails** ([watch](https://youtu.be/-H1GZjECTsU))
  Successful Rails apps tend to become massive monoliths over time. Our's is no exception. Our team is over 1000 engineers. Our codebase is over 4 million lines of Ruby. But, Rails doesn't tell you how to manage that many developers working on that large a codebase. So, we're encouraging modularization and boundaries within our codebase. Our approach is lightweight and actually producing results. We're the right ones to talk about this because we're the one's issuing the guidance internally.
- **Rails Expertise, Distilled: AI Agents That Get Your Monolith** by Brandon Weaver ([watch](https://youtu.be/-x9Ir3FakDY))
  New developers face months of unproductive confusion when dropped into massive codebases they can't navigate or understand. What if they could get instant answers about how systems work, identify what code needs changing, and understand complex business logic without waiting for help? This talk demonstrates how Rails' built-in introspection transforms into expert AI tools that understand your specific codebase, making institutional knowledge accessible 24/7. Instead of 3-month ramp-ups, developers contribute meaningfully in days while the entire team stays productive.
- **Performance starts at boot** by Ben Sheldon ([watch](https://youtu.be/FIipSavS5qo))
  Everyone can better understand how their Ruby code performs, regardless of whether they're using Rails or Hanami or just scripting with Ruby. As applications grow, I frequently see inside-out application performance work ignored or unacceptably tolerated ("that's just the way it is [sigh]").
- **Peace, Love, and CRUD: Finding Calm in the Chaos—With Ruby, AI, and a Little Garden Magic** by Tia Anderson ([watch](https://youtu.be/Cq4sWAf-d5U))
  This talk matters because we are enduring death by a thousand quiet cuts. The world asks us to go faster while our spirits beg us to slow down. Emotional exhaustion has become the norm, but it doesn't have to be. I built Peace of Mind not just with Rails, but with urgency and heart. As a newer dev and RailsConf Scholar, I've lived the tension between burnout and beauty. Choosing peace...in our work, our lives, and our code creates ripples. It starts with one. One you. One me.
- **AI Interface in 5 Minutes - Model Context Protocol on Rails** by Paweł Strzałkowski ([watch](https://youtu.be/9Ij63xgLHE4))
  This talk delivers a low-risk, high-value AI strategy that applies to any Rails app, new or old. It proves the ecosystem's power to modernize existing assets in the AI era without the need for expensive rewrites. It teaches one of the key aspects of the modern AI tech stack, giving a competitive advantage. I'm a CTO, a veteran Rails developer and a vetted conference speaker. My expertise on a similar topic is validated by my upcoming talks at Rails World and EuRuKo this year. I'm excited to bring this timely material to the US community
- **The MCP Fog Made Me Do It: A Ruby Inspector's Unexpected Journey** by Enrique Carlos Mogollán ([watch](https://youtu.be/3u72MBYDRFA))
  MCP is still pretty foggy for most developers, and Ruby shouldn't be left out of the AI tooling party. This story shows how a simple "let me figure this out" project can accidentally become something fun and interesting to share. I've been learning about MCP, from the official ruby SDK, and stumbled onto this idea of self-generating UI interfaces. If you've ever stared a new project and wondered "how do I even start?", this talk is one example from foggy confusion to sunshine moment of "holy smokes, I didn't know that was possible." Besides, Ruby deserves a seat at the AI table.
- **Building Cloud Data Infrastructure with Ruby** by Evgeny Li ([watch](https://youtu.be/tE_gTgnoLw8))

Learn real-world lessons from Bemi AI, an agentic data platform. You'll gain practical skills and be inspired to leverage Ruby for your next infrastructure project!
- **Fireside chat with the co-founder and CTO of bolt.new Albert Pai** ([watch](https://youtu.be/pzA1Q8sBwcA))
  Irina Nazarova sits down with Albert Pai, Co-founder and CTO of Bolt.new, to talk about building one of the fastest-growing startups in code generation—what worked, what didn’t, and how Ruby and Rails shaped the path.
- **Operating rails: what about after you deploy?** by André Arko ([watch](https://youtu.be/2h2XEyOM6lg))
  Running a web service requires you to do so many things that aren't included in any programming books or tutorials. We need more developers able to ship services that work, rather than expecting each developer to figure out the entire list by trial and error, one at a time, by themselves. Blog posts with individual tips about isolated problems don't cut it either, because no one is creating a field survey or a checklist of the overall process and making sure developers are aware of and ready for what they'll face in production.
- **Pack It Up: Why Packwerk Can’t Save Your Messy Rails App (But You Can)** by Stephan Hagemann ([watch](https://youtu.be/py_vjWTmAwg))
  Packwerk promised modularity in a gem install — but good architecture doesn’t come from `bundle add`. We’ll look at how Packwerk’s story reflects deeper truths about software design, organizational habits, and how we sometimes ask our tools to do our growing for us. This is a call to arms (and to our love of the craft) for teams that want to scale Rails applications by scaling their understanding first.
- **Navigating programming language evolution in the AI era** by José Valim ([watch](https://youtu.be/ydkP8yB9ozg))
  As AI becomes increasingly integrated into software development, we find ourselves facing questions about how our programming languages and tools should evolve - questions that don't yet have clear answers. Rather than prescribing solutions, this talk explores the open questions and possible directions that developers and tooling authors should be grappling with.

- **Building Agents with Rails** by Justin Bowen ([watch](https://youtu.be/f20j7Cmq7JI))
  Hands-on workshop for building AI agents using Rails framework and modern AI tools.
- **Inertia Rails Workshop** ([watch](https://youtu.be/XBZcLD5xcPY))
  Inertia.js solves a huge pain point for server side MVC frameworks: clean integration with rich client-side libraries like React, Vue, and Svelte. Inertia Rails allows both sides of this equation to shine. The Rails code looks almost exactly like vanilla Rails code (without the view layer), which keeps existing Rails teams productive. On the client, Inertia Rails takes away a lot of the headaches in gluing React and Rails together: session based auth, server side global state management, and Inertia form submissions make life much easier on teams.
- **Upskill Your Team by Diving into Rails itself & other Gems** by Kasper Timm Hansen ([watch](https://youtu.be/N5VpMNgbrsg))
  There's a ton of untapped potential in Rails and other gem source for upskilling that teams aren't leveraging because they don't know how. And there's almost no content showing how. This problem hurts Ruby open source, because teams don't know how to contribute or make gems (exposure to real open source code is the first step IMO). I've given several Rails source deep-dive workshops over Zoom that 70+ people have attended. I've shown a live-demo of this on stage at RailsConf that attendees raved about.
- **The Dynamic Ruby Toolkit** by Noel Rappin ([watch](https://youtu.be/c0v3qj06nfc))
  Ruby rewards thinking about types with a dynamic mindset instead of a static one. In this workshop, we’ll show how use Ruby’s dynamism to your advantage. From the humble comment to runtime type checking, from tests to debugging techniques, from data management to true object-oriented design, this workshop will give you the tools you need to bring out Ruby’s full power.
