@JudeLawrence @rails Hi Jude, could you DM us your email address?

The Rails Foundation is delighted to announce a fun partnership with the @agencyoflearn. Under the Agency's close mentorship, a team of junior developers will create an event schedule app for #RailsWorld, gaining hands-on experience for their portfolio. rubyonrails.org/2023/5/30/rail…

We're seeking guests to come share their expertise. If you have something you believe is valuable for early career developers to hear about, we'd love to host you. Technical tips, resume and interview advice, the sky's the limit. DM us if you'd be interested in being a guest!

Starting this month, we're going to have a member "Open Mic". This is a time for members of the community to talk about something they've learned recently, are passionate about, or just want to discuss.

@agbilre Hi Gabriel, this project is open to members of our early career developer community. Get in touch by applying on our website. Thank!

We can't wait to deliver something amazing for the Rails World conference this October. (If you are an early career dev, or an experienced dev interested in mentoring, we’d love to talk to you!)

@GregMolnar @rails Honestly we haven’t decided yet. It’s a possibility.

@rails @agencyoflearn Will it be an open source app?
