The conference
One conference, three languages
The Rails community in Latin America speaks Portuguese and Spanish, and it is spread across many countries. The 2027 edition is about bringing those communities together in one place. English is there because it is how the rest of the Ruby world gets here.
-
The region's languages
Nos Trilhos and Sobre Raíles sit in the brand next to On Rails: the Portuguese and Spanish spoken here, plus the English that brings the rest of the Ruby world.
-
A meeting point
An event big enough to bring the whole region together for two days, in one place. São Paulo, eighth edition since 2012.
-
Organised across borders
The people behind RubyConf Uruguay are part of this edition, connecting the Ruby communities of Latin America.
