RubyMotion #inspect 2014: Announcing More Speakers, Student Tickets

In a bit more than a month, the 28th and 29th May, we will be launching our second annual developer conference, #inspect, this time in sunny San Francisco, California.

RubyMotion #inspect 2014 will be a 2-day single track conference, 100% about RubyMotion. We picked an awesome venue, Fort Mason, a former US military post office which offers a scenic view of the famous Golden Gate Bridge.

We are obviously super excited about the conference. Make sure to grab a ticket when you can, we are selling those fast.

More Speakers

We are happy to reveal four more awesome speakers, in addition to 12 already-announced speakers:

• Alex Rothenberg is a software engineer at McKinsey and the author of the motion-addressbook library. He will talk about simplifying the Cocoa APIs and making sure they do not crush your Ruby code.

• Dennis Ushakov, a software engineer at JetBrains, will show off RubyMine and its excellent integration with the RubyMotion toolchain.

• Nikolay Nemshilov is a senior software developer at Ninefold and also the author of UnderOS (or shortly, uOS), a project that aims to help web-developers to get into native iOS development by reusing knowledge and technologies they already know, which he will present.

• Austin Seraphin is a blind developer and an accessibility expert. Austin was a speaker at #inspect 2013 last year and delivered one of the most acclaimed presentations. Since then, he authored the motion-accessibility gem and will talk about how making RubyMotion apps accessible to the blind.

We will be announcing the last batch of speakers soon. If you submitted a talk proposal, we will get back to you as soon as we can. Thanks for your patience!

Due to the demand we will be offering a limited batch of tickets for students to the conference at a highly discounted price.
