[MacRuby-devel] Rails.app done by the MacRuby community

2012-03-28 Thread Matt Aimonetti
Today a mini drama was started after Yehuda Katz announced his kickstarter 
project to build a ".app" for Rails. He's trying to raise $25k to work on the 
project, see more there:
http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3768339

Putting the money raising question aside, I think this is a good project but I 
think that as a community we can do it together, learn a lot in the process and 
create an awesome product helping the community.

My suggestion is that people interested get together and hack together in an 
open and public way. Yehuda might get funded and decide to contribute or do his 
own thing in JS, that's totally besides the point since our motivations  would 
be different so we shouldn't worry about that.

So, what do you say?

- Matt

P.S: Two years ago, I ported couchdbx to MacRuby and extracted some code you 
can see here: https://github.com/mattetti/mrstuff
The couchdbx app is also available in my github repo.

Hi,

I just started learning MacRuby and I saw te kickstarter project yesterday.

A GUI for rvm was already going to be one of the first apps I'd do with 
MacRuby, so I would love to contribute to this project.

Maybe try active_resource connection first with macruby. It might not be an app 
but perhaps with some focus on rails macruby might be useful.

Someone already did a RVM GUI in MacRuby, check it out: 
http://jewelrybox.unfiniti.com/

Unfortunately, I don't think the source code is available :(

Re: [MacRuby-devel] Rails.app done by the MacRuby community

2012-03-28 Thread Matt Aimonetti
Not a bad idea but I believe that ActiveResource is being deprecated.

I'm afraid I wasn't clear, the idea wasn't to run Rails on MacRuby but to
setup a working environment that could be used by graphic designers for
instance. Think MAMP http://www.mamp.info/en/index.html (or whatever the
recommended version is) but for Rails.

MacRuby would provide the GUI and the logic to connect things together.
