🌸 Here’s your State of Hanami for 2025.

We took our first steps into a new era: we made a substantial release, began unifying our ecosystem, launched our sponsorship program, and saw a real uptick in community activity.

Also today: entering the home stretch before Hanami 2.3. All the code is done. Just guide updates, upgrade notes, and the announcement post, and we’ll be ready to go.

Probably not next week (I still need to sleep). But *definitely* the week after.

I substantially improved the docs for Dry Logger today. This is the logger you get in Hanami apps, but you can also use it anywhere you like!

It’s a pretty nice logger. Check it out!

You know… Ruby Central’s takeover of rubygems GitHub org ONLY worked because it could be executed within seconds, and by doing so, prevent the possibility of revert.

If the ownership change was a PR it would never have been approved.

If RC is “right”, why did they need the atomic switch?
