Eileen Uchitelle - The Magic of Rails - Rails World 2023

Rails Core member and @shopify Senior Staff Software Engineer Eileen Uchitelle explores the magic of Rails in her keynote at Rails World. From taking a look at the philosophy behind the framework to exploring some of the common patterns that Rails uses to build agnostic and beautiful interfaces, Eileen helps you navigate the Rails codebase to better understand the patterns it uses to create the framework we all know and love.
But Rails is so much more than its design and architecture. Eileen also shares her motivation for working on the framework and why the community is so important to the long term success of Rails.

[@siyaram2855]

Isn't this talk there in one old 2023 conf?

[@PankajDoharey]

You know what is fractured? Node js and the entire JS ecosystem, frontend backend everything. The only worthy thing JS Ecosystem has ever built is React. And even that is an inspiration from the clojurescript world. Ruby on Rails is a class in itself, but we are completely left behind in Machine learning. Too much focus of Web framework., and this is not good news, if we dont catchup newer apps will be build on Python simply because the backend ML is build on that so teams will naturally choose teh same technology.

[@10Rmorais]

Agreed

[@reesericdotci]

rails is a web framework, python & javascript are languages

[@JuriBinturong]

There is ZERO as in 0 jobs with Rails in Canada, and Shopify is a Canadian company. Rails is dead bruh. Saying it's like Java is too funny coz Java has jobs, Rails doesn't

[@osazemeusen1091]

Rails has jobs, granted it may not have street credibility in Canada but a lot of startups in the US still favor Ruby/ROR for development time. You could know more languages to increase your opportunities. I use Ruby, Node & Go daily.

[@CrafixDaika]

Exactly ! A quick search showed me only 132 jobs in Canada, and since 132 == 0, I choose Java.

[@dex7378]

dead country

[@bilalshabbir987]

Rails is now die

[@yana_agun]

Yes.

[@melancholy-engineering]

Why?

[@jpcfernandes]

That sentence makes as much sense semantically as it does grammatically.

[@MosesJeromeCLucas]

Rails is not dead, rails is just stable and mature like Java

[@bilalshabbir987]

Rails is not scable like java spring boot@@MosesJeromeCLucas
