I’m going to learn Ruby to use Ruby on Rails in future to look for new horizons. I’ve read a lot about Ruby, but… I doesn’t found any real applications that are built with Ruby? For Mac I’ve found only CLI apps.
Does anyone have use cases for pure (and popular) Ruby applications?
Try googling for “ruby code for applications”
I found this:

If your ultimate goal is Rails applications, I would learn that at the same time (that search is easy too. Many folks start with the famous hartl tutorials and Ryan Bates Railscasts), particularly to get experience with the miriad conventions that you need to know to write good rails apps. If you got good at ruby first you could end up writing a lot of code in rails apps… that could be written for you via rails conventions and external gems.
