Conference and hackathon #iOSonRailsConf 2014 will change the way developers are creating mobile and web applications

Second International Joint iOS and Ruby on Rails Developers Conference and Hackathon #iOSonRailsConf 2014 will be held from 18th to 20th of April in «Porto Mare» Park-Hotel in Alushta, Crimea, Ukraine. The event will focus on integrating the experience in developing mobile applications for iOS and developing web applications with Ruby on Rails.

Ruby developers have had a passion for Apple products for a long time. Almost everyone are developing on OS X, using TextMate, Sublime or MacVim editors. Quite a strong community of Apple-lovers was formed among Ruby developers. Craving for writing scripts and server applications precisely on Ruby is also observed among iOS- and Mac-developers. If we talk about server applications and sites, using Ruby almost always leads to using Ruby on Rails framework.

Both Ruby and Objective-C scooped their ideas from the elder language SmallTalk, which foundations were laid among others by Kent Beck, also known for his theory in programming methodology (Extreme Programming, Agile). But the programmers communities of these two languages are different: if Objective-C developers live from WWDC to WWDC in anticipation of new features and do not even realize what awaits them in the new versions, the Ruby-community is constantly bubbling and changing due to it’s openness.

«#iOSonRailsConf is about the confluence of those two communities. It’s about creating things the way that we want to. It’s about creating client and server apps with Rails and iOS. And it’s about changing the way we’re developing» – Mattt Thompson, Mobile Lead at Heroku.

First conference was successfully held in 2013. Attendees saw experts from Canada, Europe, Russia, Ukraine and USA, among whom there were the authors of AFNetworking, AFIncrementalStore, SSKeychain, SSZipArchive and other frameworks. There also were covered CocoaPods, RubyMotion and RubyMine, NUI, KIF and Frank, ReactiveCocoa, helios, SSDataKit, RestKit, Sencha Touch and PhoneGap, PostgreSQL, Passbook, basic principles of User Interface (UI), User Experience (UX) and analytics.

A year has passed and many things changed — iOS 7 and Ruby on Rails 4 have been released with their cool new features. This year event will include even more great talks and useful live-coding workshops. Conference will be held in parallel with the Hackathon, which will allow participants in the form of a competition dive deep into the practice and apply newly acquired knowledge to implement their ideas. Teams will be mentored by the speakers themselves.

It will be interesting for both iOS-developers knowing little of Ruby and Rails and Ruby-developers looking at mobile development. Speakers, sponsors, press, HR-managers and IT startups investors are also invited.

As practice has shown «Porto Mare» Park-Hotel is a perfect venue: situated on a Crimean seaside it has comfortable conference-halls, Wi-Fi and all needed equipment for such kind of events. The surrounding nature will be a pleasant bonus for urbanized geeks with its sea breeze, air filled with aromas, and mild spring sun. The average temperature in April is about +20°C, and by this time of the year everything is green and blooming.

Tickets are on sale since February 12th, the earlier are the cheaper. Hotel also provides special prices for accommodation of #iOSonRailsConf guests. No refunds are available.
