Topics
Plain <html> and .css can be beautiful
How far can modern HTML and CSS take us? Much further than you might think. And what does this unlock for Ruby web apps? Let's dig in.
New initiative: Ruby Connect
The rough idea: I have a plan for a new meetup to connect folks here with Japan
As you know, Japan is the birthplace of Ruby, and it still has a massive, highly active community and corporate ecosystem (as you've probably seen with RubyKaigi!). However, it's often difficult for developers in Japan to connect with the community here due to a lack of networking opportunities and the language barrier (though technology is making that much easier to mitigate nowadays). The goal is to bridge this gap through a remote meetup.
I'm currently planning a small pilot meetup. I would love to get your feedback on this idea, as well as see if anyone might be interested in participating!
