In celebration of @rubykaigi I released Herb v0.10 today! 🌿 It ships with new primitives and provides the foundation that we need to build out production reactivity in ReActionView! Along with a new Diffing Engine and ActionView-specific static analysis!

🎙️ Remote Ruby: Blue Ridge Ruby Insights & Experiences David recaps Blue Ridge Ruby, open source motivation, and why smaller Ruby conferences lead to better hallway conversations and lightning talks. We also get into Rails + Stripe lessons. ⬇️ Link below ⬇️

@florentmsl @fractaledmind We had a great time at the @gorails hackathon for this. There are probably also a few things I would approach differently today 😊

I want to build an Airtable-like feature for my app. Thanks to @fractaledmind, @marcoroth_, and joeldrapper for building exactly this 4 years ago and publishing it! This will be my Saturday morning deep dive and I love it github.com/fractaledmind/…

@sama Mushroom problem

@paolino Thanks for the quick release 🙌🏼

RubyLLM::Schema 0.4.0 is out with support for Dependencies and Conditionals! Thanks to @marcoroth_ for the PR! github.com/crmne/ruby_llm…

I'm doing a live Getting Started with Rails workshop today at Frontend Masters. We're going to build a job board from scratch with some Hotwire features. frontendmasters.com

I've been seeing posts all over about the state of CTFs post-LLM. I've seen many attempts to explain why this is just a new evolution of CTFs, but I fundamentally disagree. I believe the original spirit is gone and I've written why in my blog. kabir.au/blog/the-ctf-s…

@gsamokovarov @BalkanRuby Thank you for organizing and putting on events for our community. It's been a blast, Genadi! Thanks to you and the whole team ❤️

What can I say in retrospect of @balkanruby 2026? I had a blast, the talks were good, the venue was unique, the treasure hunt was top-notch, and the children played. It was a communal experience, and I cannot imagine us ever topping the museum. Maybe we shouldn't.

Marco (@marcoroth_) has opened the second day with a… hot take? Our take is that you can just be nice and this is awesome!

🦸‍♂️ Marco saves the (second) day! Welcome @marcoroth_! Our final speaker comes with a talk about "HTML-Aware ERB: The Path to Reactive Rendering". Can't miss it! Get your ticket now! balkanruby.com/talks/45 #RubySpeaker #RubyCommunity #RubyConference

社内のフロントエンドチームでは@marcoroth_ のHerbのセッションの話で盛り上がっていました フロントエンドエンジニアの RubyKaigi 2026 参加レポ — スポンサーブースが想像以上に楽しくて、Herbの発表に痺れた｜pxfnc zenn.dev/gatechnologies… #zenn #rubykaigi

Friday May 8th in Rimini was magical. We spent months imagining Rubycon 2026. Then the day came, and it became real. This video tells that story. Thanks to everyone who was there. #Rubycon2026

Good old weekend OSS written by hand. Because, for me, OSS is not about the final product. It is about the thinking process, the problem solving, the fun, the sharing, and the like-minded people.

The Rubycon afternoon continues with our fantastic speakers. #Rubycon2026

@eddievasy Hey, this already shipped some time ago. Make sure to opt-in to the formatter in the VS Code extension settings, or, if you have a .herb.yml in your project root, enable the formatter in the configuration file.

@marcoroth_ Hey Marco! Do you know when this is coming to the VSCode extension? It looks amazing 🔥

Got an early version of the Herb Formatter wired up to the Herb Language Server to support the built-in format-on-save.

Seeing Herb operate in an environment like GitHub feels like a huge milestone for the project and a really strong signal for the future of HTML-aware ERB tooling in Rails. Very excited to keep pushing toward Herb 1.0 🚀 Read Joel's blog post here: hawksley.org/2026/05/06/ado…

A huge thank you to @joelhawksley in particular for putting so much time into testing Herb at that scale and helping push the project forward by reporting bugs and submitting fixes along the way.

Really exciting to see Herb being adopted at GitHub! 🌿 Over the past months, the GitHub team has been running Herb across one of the largest Rails codebases out there where Herb helped uncover real issues missed by existing tooling while also providing invaluable feedback. 🙌
