Rails + Claude AI: Build Together Challenge
Rails Fever is bringing back in-person Ruby events to Philadelphia!
This isn’t a talk you just sit through—it’s a collaborative build challenge. Together, we’ll create a real Rails app in just a couple of hours, powered by Claude AI. You’ll work in small groups, bounce around ideas, and tackle the challenge from concept to working prototype.
We’ll give you a theme and a set of constraints at the start—then it’s up to the group to design, code, and iterate. Whether you’re a seasoned Rails veteran or brand new to the framework, you’ll have something to contribute.
💡 No Claude Pro account? No problem. You can still follow along and we’ll pair you with someone who has one.
📩 Have a space for future events? Email us at hello@railsfever.com—we’d love to bring more Ruby meetups to Philly.
