GitLab is Ruby at least, I don't immediately remember any others but there probably are some

Github too or a least when you look at the github enterprises source code

What can they do tho?

Since the beginning, GitHub.com has been a Ruby on Rails monolith. Today, the application is nearly two million lines of code and more than 1,000 engineers collaborate on it daily

  • GitHub
  • Gitlab
  • Airbnb
  • Shopify
  • Hulu
  • Zendesk
  • Basecamp, obviously

I know of a bunch of less famous ones, but those are a few of the bigger ones that I’m aware of.
