Hey there!

I'm thrilled to have this platform to share my passion for programming, specifically when it comes to the enchanting world of Ruby. Here, I'll be taking you along on my personal exploration of the Ruby language, the Ruby on Rails framework, and the incredible development ecosystem that surrounds them. But that's not all – I'll also be sharing exciting updates about my side projects and shedding light on the impactful work being done by the RubySantaMarta non-profit organization and its events.

For as long as I can remember, programming has been a captivating journey for me. The elegance and expressiveness of Ruby have always fascinated me, and its ability to bring joy to the coding process is truly remarkable. Through this blog, I hope to share that joy and inspire others to embark on their own Ruby adventures.

Together, we'll delve into the intricacies of the Ruby language, from the fundamentals to advanced concepts. I'll share tips, tricks, and best practices that I've picked up along the way, helping you write clean, efficient, and elegant code. We'll explore the power of Ruby on Rails, uncovering how this transformative framework can be harnessed to build remarkable applications that make a real impact.

I'll also be sharing info about my side projects – those passion-driven endeavors that allow us to explore new ideas and stretch our creative muscles. I hope to inspire you to embark on your own side projects, unleashing your creativity and embracing the joy, outside the constraints of conventional projects.

Lastly, I am proud to announce the foundation of the RubySantaMarta non-profit organization. This is going to be the place to be for Ruby developers in my hometown Santa Marta, Colombia, but everyone around the globe will be invited to attend (personally or virtually) all of our events/meetups. Through this blog, I'll keep you informed about our initiatives and opportunities to get involved. Together, we can make a difference and contribute to the vibrant ecosystem we know only Ruby has to offer.

Make sure to follow me so you never miss a single post. Also, I invite you to connect with me on social media, where we can share our thoughts, exchange ideas, and engage in thought-provoking discussions.
