Finishing Moves
A Ruby gem adding small, focused utility methods to core classes to simplify common awkward coding patterns.
What is Finishing Moves?
Finishing Moves is a Ruby gem that adds small, focused utility methods to core Ruby classes like Array, Hash, String, and Object. It solves common 'awkward' coding patterns by providing elegant alternatives that feel more natural in Ruby, such as safe nil handling and convenient data transformations. The gem is designed to reduce cyclomatic complexity and improve code readability.
Ruby developers who frequently work with data transformations, nil safety, and string manipulation, and want more intuitive methods for common tasks without overriding Ruby's core behavior.
Developers choose Finishing Moves because it provides well-tested, focused utility methods that integrate seamlessly with Ruby's ecosystem, follow a strict 'do one job well' philosophy, and avoid overriding default behavior, making it a reliable and non-intrusive enhancement.
