We moved our photos to a self-built photo gallery app and wrote a post about it 🙌
Ditched a hosted gallery for a one-box Rails 8.1 app (built for Friendly.rb, now open source). 9 Active Storage derivatives per photo, AVIF came in 31.6% smaller than WebP, and plenty of lessons the guides skip once you pass a few dozen images.

Avo 4 is here 🎉
15 months, ~2000 commits, and about 50 teams kicking the tires. It's a full redesign, not a fresh coat of paint.
A safer way build your internal tools 🧵

I just released a new version of the Stimulus LSP that is now fully powered by the power and intelligence of the Herb toolchain! 🌿
I'm so happy that this finally came full circle. These features are initially what prompted me to start working on Herb!

Something special happened last September.
Our plushy seats hosted over 130 bright folks who came to see the happening which we call Friendly.rb.

Friendly.rb is taking a break.
We've had quite a few questions about that and wanted to share them publicly.

Also, as a tribute to the @rubylangorg and @rails community, I've made ♦️ The Ruby Triathlon 2025 Challenge ♦️ via one of my apps built in Ruby on Rails. Have fun playing it!

After 13 yrs of programming, I attended my very first Ruby conference, @friendlyrb! It was amazing and long overdue. I should have gone to a Ruby/Rails conference sooner. I guess better late than never 😅
Meeting people from @X in person was great. Already talking in this online feel like I've found the people that inspire me and look up to in terms of business, programming, living a healthy life, etc. But meeting and talking to them IRL is 10x better.
The conference had, ofc, a friendly vibe, with just the right crowd size. Attended insightful talks, learned to brew my own V60 coffee from @lucianghinda, learned about growing businesses, got valuable feedback for my products, 1st sale on my new OG image generator app and presented it during the elevator pitch round! 🎉 And I feel this is just the tip of the iceberg from the 2 packed days at Friendly.rb as SO much more happened.
Thanks to Adrian, Lucian, Stefan, Jakob, and team for organizing the third Ruby conference in Bucharest, RO 🇷🇴, and to all speakers and attendees for contributing to this amazing community ❤️
Many more conferences to come from now on! Next stop: 🌉 SF Ruby in November 19-21 (just bought my ticket)

せっかくルーマニアに来たので一番好きな漫画マスターキートンの聖地巡りとしてドナウ川に行って文明掘り返したかったが、ブカレストからはめちゃ遠いらしい。写真は関係ない川。 #friendlyrb
