Avo 3 open beta

We're shooting for an end-of-the-month (July) open beta for Avo 3.
It will not be perfect, but it will be ready for you to test in production.

Friendly.rb updates

We have only 23 tickets available, so if you want to ensure you are coming to Friendly, get yours now.

After the first day (Sept. 27th), we will have a guided tour through Bucharest. A few certified guides will tell us all about the history of Bucharest and Romania.

On Friday, after the conference, I'll take whoever wants to join us on a train ride to the mountains, where we can visit the amazing Peles Castle, have a top-down view of Romania's mountains, enjoy the local cuisine, and get back to Bucharest in the evening.
So, make sure you book at least an extra day for Bucharest.

Some attendees even wrote that they would spend the rest of the days in Romania, and we'll leave together for Amsterdam to Rails World.

We still have a few more Community Sponsorship spots available for those who build product or serve their customers with Ruby.

Sin City Ruby

SCR started selling tickets. The ticket sales will end on July 21st, so grab yours. Lucian and I are going to speak there in March.
I have to figure out a cool activity to do in the Nevada desert together.

Friendly.show

I'm not sure if you knew, but Yaro and I occasionally host a podcast. Our last guest, Jonathan Markwell, talked to us about the early days of SaaS, Remote work, and Brighton Ruby.

Thank you

Thank you for being amazing community members. I feel that Avo is becoming much more than just a small admin panel gem.
I see how more and more folks join the community and answer questions on Discord and GitHub issues, and I am forever in your debt.

That's it for today.
Thanks for being awesome!

Adrian and Paul
