Ruby Unconf is a community-driven event. It is a conference with a twist: There is no schedule until the participants create it. The attendees propose talks and workshops, which are then scheduled by popular vote. The goal is to create a conference that is shaped by the needs and interests of the participants. You decide what will happen!
Ruby Unconf is a non-profit event. We want to keep the ticket price as low as possible to make the event accessible to everyone. We are looking for sponsors to help us cover the costs of the event. If you are interested in sponsoring Ruby Unconf, please get in touch with us.
We recommend to prepare slides for your talk. The talk length will be
half an hour. You get the chance to pitch your talk at the beginning
of each conference day. Besides talks different formats like workshops
or panel discussions are welcome.
Also we're open for other formats like fishbowl discussions or activities.
You can propose a talk or workshop on any topic you like.
You can propose a talk before the event or on the day of the event.
If you want to propose a talk before the event, you can
create an issue
on our talk proposal
repository on GitHub. We'll pre-print them before the event, so you don't
have to write them down on the day of the event.
If you want to propose a talk on the day of the event, we'll provide paper templates for you to write down your talk proposal. The talks will be scheduled by popular vote on each day of the event.
For shorter talks, we'll have a lightning talk session.
Tickets are available on our Tito ticket page.
We want to keep the ticket price as low as possible to make the event accessible to everyone. But we also rely
on the ticket sales to cover parts of the costs of the event.
