Question

I’m sorry if this question is noob-ish but I’m not having much luck with Google. Can Ruby be used for UI based Windows apps? I’m not looking for a Rails app, just Ruby.

Thanks

You have couple of options.

• Use Gtk Ruby which works on Windows as well (http://ruby-gnome2.sourceforge.jp/).
• You can use WxRuby or Tk.
• You can use JRuby and Swing.In fact there are high level libraries which can help you there, such as (http://monkeybars.rubyforge.org/)
