In this episode of Remote Ruby, Chris and Andrew chat with Travis Dockter, the founder of a brand-new Ruby conference, Blastoff Rails. They dive deep into Travis’s journey from business school to bootcamp, his love for conferences, and why he decided to organize one of his own in Albuquerque, New Mexico. From planning venues and sponsors to shaping a unique conference philosophy, Travis shares both the behind-the-scenes challenges and the excitement of creating a new community space for Rails developers.LinksTravis Dockter LinkedInTravis Dockter XBlastoff Rails XBlastoff Rails-June 11-12, 2026, Albuquerque New MexicoAlbuquerque MuseumPirates of Silicon ValleyKieran Klaassen XRuby Conference BlogSan Francisco Ruby Conference 2025, November 19-21terminal.shop (coffee shop)ThePrimeagen (YouTube) Meow WolfHoneybadgerHoneybadger is an application health monitoring tool built by developers for developers.JudoscaleMake your deployments bulletproof with autoscaling that just works.Disclaimer: This post contains affiliate links.
