RailsConf 2025 Evolution of Rails within RubyGems.org by Samuel Giddins, Nick Quaranto

As a 16 year old open source Rails app, Rubygems.org can tell a story of how building and maintaining a Rails app has changed over the years. Join us as we progress from its creation in 2009 until today, exploring how things have changed and what we've learned. We dig into deploying, handling gem dependencies, background processing, web servers, security, and the frontend approaches. We'll wrap up with our thoughts on the future of security and compliance.
