Recommended VM version: Ruby 1.9.1-p0
== HotRuby
HotRuby is Ruby on JavaScript and Flash.
HotRuby runs opcode, compiled by YARV(Yet Another Ruby VM) on Ruby. To be precise, HotRuby is a Ruby VM on JavaScript and Flash. I recommend using Ruby 1.9.1-p0, the newer versions have been giving trouble.
Most of the grammars are implemented. However, exceptions are not implemented. Most of the built-in functions and built-in classes are not implemented.
== News
Now using Ruby 1.9.1, but broke some things migrating over.
Works with jQuery!
== Mission Statement:
To provide a JavaScript VM for the Ruby language to support legacy browsers.
Legacy browsers don't handle <script language="text/ruby"> tags, but they do support JavaScript.
In order for developers to be free to use Ruby as a web based scripting language they need to be certain that their code will run on as many platforms as possible.
HotRuby will enable using Ruby on all major browser platforms.
== Github?
It was developed by yukoba ?, the official website is at http://hotruby.accelart.jp/.
The original repository is at http://code.google.com/p/hotruby/, but it seems to be abandoned.
Github to the rescue!
