Something happens at RubyConf every year that is hard to explain to people who have not been. You walk in as a developer. You walk out remembering why you became one. MINISWAN is not just a saying. It is what this community is. What does Ruby mean to you right now?

RubyConf 2026 is a wrap. We laughed, learned, and stayed up late doing karaoke...Turned debates into conversations about why we do this. This community keeps the energy and friendships alive after the conference. What's one thing you're taking home?

Turns out RubyConf 2026 runs on coffee. ☕ Thanks to GitLab, our Coffee Sponsor, we served 50+ gallons of coffee every day during the conference. That's a whole lot of caffeine, conversations, and community. Thanks for keeping us fueled, @GitLab! 💚

2 days out. The hallway track at RubyConf is half the conference. The conversations that happen between sessions, over lunch, waiting for the elevator... some of the best ones you'll have all year. 👉️ rubyconf.org

3 days out. If you haven't been to Red Rock Canyon: 15 minutes from the Strip, stunning, and a nature break that eases conference-snack guilt. Good for a morning or evening. 📍 Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area

One week out. If you haven't mapped out your days yet, the Eventify app is the easiest way to do it. Download it now, search RubyConf 2026, and build your personal schedule before you're standing in the lobby trying to remember which room to go to.

The Ruby community values readable, intentional, human software. This year's Beautiful Ruby track returns to those foundations—abstraction, modularity, TDD—what makes code worth working in. We're curious: which principle or practice do you keep returning to?
