Course Content

Meet MacRuby is an intermediate-level Pluralsight course taught by Geoffrey Grosenbach. It runs 1h 14m, is taught in English, and includes a certificate of completion. It is a paid course, first published April 2020.

Unlock the power of Ruby for Mac OS X development with MacRuby! Create robust and fully-featured macOS applications using the familiar Ruby language.

MacRuby is a powerful Ruby interpreter developed by Apple, built directly on top of Objective-C. This unique architecture sets it apart from other scripting approaches to the Cocoa frameworks.

What makes MacRuby special? Unlike traditional interfaces, MacRuby objects are fully functional peers of Objective-C objects. This eliminates the need for translation layers, resulting in:

  • Near-native speed: Your Ruby applications will perform with impressive efficiency.
  • Full Cocoa framework access: Develop applications capable of doing almost anything a compiled Objective-C application can.
  • Seamless integration: Experience a smooth and efficient development workflow.

Stop settling for "almost" a desktop experience. MacRuby empowers you to build real Mac OS X desktop applications with the productivity and expressiveness of Ruby. If you're looking for a way to leverage your Ruby skills for macOS development, MacRuby is the solution.
