RubyMotion 2.0 came out this week with support for OS X. This means it is now possible to write iOS and Mac apps in Ruby with lots of common code.
I didn’t really take to RubyMotion on iOS, but the community around it has exploded and I have been following it. I’ve wanted to use MacRuby to write a Mac app, but MacRuby just doesn’t do it for me. With RubyMotion 2.0, I’m really excited about using it.
RubyMotion 2.0 also supports your own custom app templates. As such, I’ve created my own custom app template for a Mac app with a nib file. Ruby developers tend to dismiss nib files, but I love them. I also created a template for a document-based Mac app.
You can get the templates at https://github.com/infiniteNIL/RubyMotionTemplates
