Ethics

Curious how a simple tool for churches and nonprofits became one of the leading podcast hosting platforms? Tom from Buzzsprout (host, and Rails World sponsor of this very podcast) takes us through the platform’s journey from its Rails 2 roots to its current infrastructure — the critical decisions that helped Buzzsprout scale, why the team chose to stay close to vanilla Rails, and how advances in the framework delivered big benefits.
