Dennis Denicio wants to give this talkEmbracing Clarity and Flexibility with dry-rb
Abstract
dry-rb is a powerful set of Ruby libraries designed to promote code clarity, immutability, and maintainability—without compromising on flexibility. In this talk, I’ll introduce three core components of the dry-rb ecosystem: dry-struct, dry-validation, and dry-transaction. Together, they enable a clean, explicit approach to data modeling, validation, and business logic orchestration.
We'll explore:
- How to use
dry-structfor typed value objects and safer data handling - Validating input and domain data with
dry-validation - Structuring business logic into composable steps with
dry-transaction
I’ll walk through practical examples from real-world Ruby applications and demonstrate how these tools can replace tangled service classes and model callbacks with something more explicit, testable, and intention-revealing.
Target Audience
Rubyists of all levels who are curious about alternatives to Rails conventions or interested in writing more maintainable, modular business logic.
