From Rust to Ruby


Who does things like that?!? Apparently: me. I have my own project, written in Rust. Not a big one, mind you, maybe approx. 30k lines of code in total. Rust is verbose so it’s not really that impressive. I’ve put it aside for some time and was toying with local inference, LLMs, writing agents and my attention was brought to Ruby. It’s been a while. So I had to take a look around to remind myself what Ruby and Ruby on Rails are doing nowadays. They’re doing quite well. There are some typing initiatives (Sorbet), and the language itself is terse as ever.
