RubyRussia is the key Russian conference on the Ruby programming language that is held by Evrone in Moscow for 10 years in a row. Let’s remember how it all began.
In 2007 the developers Ivan Yevtukhovich, Oleg Balbekov and Yuri Gurzhiy began using the Ruby language and the Rails framework in projects. The people also interested in the technology has started to grow around them. In 2009, they decided to organize a small gathering of like-minded people.
The Gogol restaurant was chosen as a place for the gathering. We agreed that the restaurant will provide a small room, and we will try to make a profit for their bar that day. We have prepared three reports. In addition to our acquaintances, we have invited the participants of the profile chat groups.
On April 19, 2009, we had held the first gathering with beer that had been attended by around 30 people. Then the gathering has grown into RailsClub, and in 2018 we have changed the name to RubyRussia because we received a change request, which we could not refuse.
