Rails World 2024
The Empowered Programmer

In 2019, Justin Searls gave a talk, "The Selfish Programmer" all about building a Rails 5 app as a one-man show. Now, he is back to share how he made a new app that's twice the size but felt like half the work. You'll learn how Rails includes more batteries than ever, when sticking with omakase pays off, and why scaling back a team doesn't have to mean slowing down.
