What is Ruby 2D?
Ruby 2D is a gem that provides a simple and cross-platform 2D graphics library for building games, visual applications, and interactive experiences in Ruby. It solves the problem of complex, low-level graphics programming by offering an intuitive domain-specific language that works across desktop, web, and mobile platforms.
Ruby developers interested in creating 2D games, visual simulations, or educational tools without dealing with complex graphics APIs. It's also suitable for educators teaching programming concepts through visual output.
Developers choose Ruby 2D for its simplicity, cross-platform capabilities, and alignment with Ruby's philosophy of developer happiness. Its unique selling point is supporting both MRI/CRuby and mruby, allowing the same code to run natively or in browsers via WebAssembly.
