AI is moving fast, but good decisions still take time. Our developer, Evaldo Klock, shares what stood out at his first Laracon.

The RubyLA blog offers insights, tutorials, and community updates for Ruby developers in Los Angeles and beyond. Developers can explore Ruby language features, web development frameworks, and best practices for building Ruby applications. Additionally, the blog covers Ruby meetups, events, and job opportunities in the Los Angeles area, fostering collaboration and networking within the local Ruby community.

A Planet Argon developer shares takeaways from Laracon EU 2026 in Amsterdam. Key highlights include Dan Harrin's talk on declarative abstractions being AI-friendly, Luke Kuzmish's case for more rigorous human code reviews as LLM-generated code rises, NativePHP enabling native iOS/Android apps from a Laravel codebase, Taylor Otwell's live demo of an AI agent that autonomously found a bug, wrote a fix, ran tests, opened a PR, and called for voice approval to deploy, and Marcel Pociot's Polyscope tool using OS-level copy-on-write filesystems to run multiple AI coding agents in parallel without merge conflicts or dependency reinstalls.
