      Does anyone here have experience with Ruby programming? More specifically mRuby or DragonRuby for game programming?

      I came across DragonRuby as free for its 7th anniversary and I’m considering checking it out, but I have no experience with the Ruby programming language itself.

      Most of my programming experience recently is in C# and Python, but I have some experience with JavaScript/TypeScript.

      Does anyone know of good resources for learning Ruby coming from that background, or thoughts on if it is worth it to try to pick up?

      I’m not really interested in LLM-based Ruby workflows, at least until I have a decent grasp of the language and syntax myself.

    7. I made a (very, very) basic Tildes scraper and CLI browser ruby gem

      Here's the ruby gem page and here's the github. Right now it comes with a command line browser that can browse the front page and group pages with no sorting options, and you can view the contents of a topic (link or text) aswell as the comments. The methods defined in lib/tilde-scraper/api.rb can be used to scrape tildes pages into Group, Page, Topic, and Comment objects.

      Right now it's super basic and messy, but I figured if anyone was interested in it it would be the people here.
