I am trying to settle on a GUI framework for Ruby and I have yet to decide which one I prefer and would like some input. I mainly want to pick the framework with the most support and community involvement. I have shied away from Shoes because the site is down and because I would like some challenge and understanding of what is going on behind the scenes.
I took a look at this post (which is a bit dated so I was hoping for some modern input):
Best Ruby GUI Framework
The two frameworks I have looked at are FXRuby and Ruby-GTK2 and I was hoping someone could give some pros and cons to these frameworks or perhaps a recommendation of a GUI framework for Ruby.
Oh and if you do think Shoes is the way to go, please mention that as well.
Thanks!!
In the end I decided to settle on Ruby-GNOME2. Seemed to have a lot of the customizable aspects I was looking at without being overly complex. Here’s the link in case anyone else is considering making GUIs in Ruby.
