Maintainable Software Podcast

@_maintainable Rails has more long-lived production systems than most stacks. The survey data should be interesting.

Catch up with Sally Lait & @RobbyRussell on Maintainable as they talk about confidence as a signal of maintainability. You can feel it in a codebase immediately. 🎧 Listen here: buff.ly/4vZMQeU

Sally Lait joins @RobbyRussell on Maintainable to talk about confidence as a signal of maintainability. Not just code… but how teams feel working in it. Listen here: buff.ly/4vZMQeU

We talk about long-lived software every episode. Now we want to hear from the teams building it. If you work with Rails, let's hear from you! buff.ly/CfR01Ug (The Ruby on Rails Community Survey is led by Planet Argon, the producers of Maintainable Podcast.)

@BrittanyEllich on maintainability, rewrites, and using coding agents without hype. A grounded conversation about readability, long lived systems, and why boring software is often the healthiest kind. Listen with host @RobbyRussell on @_maintainable: buff.ly/JulUesu

If your codebase feels complicated… good. That means it’s lived a life and served real users. But there are ways to simplify and move forward confidently. Maintainable shares stories from teams who’ve been in your shoes. Join us! buff.ly/kSn9kun
