Most developers associate Ruby with web applications, but Ruby can also run inside embedded systems, firmware, and IoT devices.
If you're curious about Ruby beyond the server, this ecosystem is definitely worth exploring.

There's even a "custom" waybar module that supports various triggers/actions defined via JSON. A similar module could be written using mruby that calls DSL methods defined in a Ruby config file.

Any desktop app, widget, or service that embeds Lua or JavaScript for it's configuration or plugin system could embed mruby; either by adding an optional build flag, creating an mruby specific fork of the project, or via a plugin that hooks mruby in. Lots of potential to integrate Ruby into the desktop.

Another free project idea: write a generic waybar module that embeds mruby so you could write waybar modules entirely in Ruby.

Using Lua as the configuration syntax or plugin system for a Window Manager isn't a new idea. AwesomeWM , a X11 Window Manager, uses Lua as it's configuration syntax. Now imagine being able to customize your fancy wayland tiling WM or add additional functionality with simple Ruby scripts running under mruby.

Weston (the Wayland example/reference compositor) added a custom Lua based shell that you can configure/extend with Lua. I wonder how much work it would take to build a mruby Weston shell? I would prefer a Ruby DSL over Lua.

A new Weekly Brain Dump is up on my blog! I ended up having a pretty non-programming focused week in the end but there are some interesting things linked!
- `taylor squash` is getting redesigned from the ground up and could become a gem too
- Lots of interesting linkshttps://sean.taylormadetech.dev/2026/01/08/weekly-brain-dump-4.html

Lightstorm: minimalistic Ruby compiler - The LLVM Project Blog

I also made some significant progress with Termbox 2 bindings for #mruby. This is mostly for fun.
All in all, this makes is pretty productive weekend, especially as for my recent standards.

Quick update on the #mruby front:
Figuring out how to make errors in the Ruby code visible and producing correct exit code was actually quite easy. And we can even get the full trace if we want.
-
I published second article about #mruby. This time I look into gems (or rather mrbgems), especially into a bit non-trivial way to use them. Includes a guide to build a very simple standalone CLI app with SQLite database.
-
@serge Ah, yes. I see that these have been discussed already. PyInfra does look promising.
I'm a huge fan of #Clojure, so "dad" looks pretty interesting https://github.com/liquidz/dad.
...which was influenced by the #mruby project https://github.com/itamae-kitchen/mitamae.
There's consfigurator if you like #CommonLisp: https://github.com/spwhitton/consfigurator/
So, we have options!

It's Taylor's third anniversary! It's crazy to think I've been working on this little game engine for that long now.
I've only managed to make a few games with it, but I've been surprised at how nice it is to make games using Ruby.
I really think I'm building a great tool that can compete. With the refactor I'm doing now it's starting to feel like it's really mine and not just gluing together libraries.

@gamingonlinux I'm the developer behind Taylor an #mruby based game engine that supports #linux #windows #osx #html and soon #android I develop on Linux and believe it should "just work" on a #SteamDeck but don't know anyone who has one to try it with.
You can check it out at https://taylormadetech.dev/
