The conference features stalwart speakers including Yukihiro Matsumoto, better known as Matz, who is the founder of the Ruby language and Tom Preston-Werner, co-founder of Github.
“We hadn’t had a proper event for Ruby developers in the region. Most events are in the US. With the arrival of Pivotal Labs and several notable startups using Ruby we thought why not Singapore?” said Andy Croll, one of the event’s organizers.
The event will also showcase talks from regional developers and everyone is invited to speak during the two-hour Ignite Ruby session. There will also be a one-day ‘Introduction to Rails’ class on 21 April conducted by Rails programmer and trainer Sarah Mei, with an install-fest the night before. The workshop is already sold out.
The event is organized by Andy Croll, Jason Ong, Sau Sheong, Carl Coryell-Martin, Chris Boesch, Kamal Fariz and Nicholas Pavlesky — all members of the Singapore Ruby Brigade.
