Why we picked it

Native extensions are a powerful tool that allows Rubyists to reach outside the Ruby VM into machine code. In this talk, you'll learn just enough C to write your first native extension, and all the different ways you can over complicate your Ruby apps with interoperability. Doors open at 6, and the talk starts at 6:30. Food and drinks will be provided at the venue. This meetup is sponsored by [Shopify](https://www.shopify.com/) and [Launch Coworking](https://launchcoworking.ca/). *This is a test run of a talk for RubyConf 2026.*
