Where to meet the Rails community?

[Elmar Hinz]

Hello folks,

my name is Elmar and I am evaluating Rails as an alternative field beside TYPO3. 

This Mailing list is listed on http://rubyonrails.org as the first address of the rails community.

 I find a few postings per day.  Is that all? Can't be! Is Rails dead?

Where to get in contact with the people? Where to find out how the community works? Where to find the infrastructure of Rails beyond Git?

Is there a Slack channel? Where to find, how to load and how to contribute user contributed modules. They are Gems I expect.

Thank you for advice

Elmar

Not at all. But it's a fairly mature platform, and the web is pretty
flush with tutorials, blog posts, stackoverflow answers, so...

If you have specific questions, ask. I'm not sure I understand that
last sentence TBH.

I'm not aware of a Rails-specific Slack. But as above, it's pretty easy
to find info online about using or creating Gems.

#RubyOnRails on Freenode is more active than this email list. That's the only other place I know of so far, but I am a total n00b.

Q&A activity has definitely shifted to stack overflow pretty majorly. .

Also another very active community is that of gorails.com. A great screencast site with a dedicated slack channel with thousands of users. All very friendly and helpful.
