[ruby-talk:444840] [ANN] Pterocos – brand-new browser-based code editor with Ruby support (feedback welcome!)
by amine kheddache 08 Jul '26

Hello Ruby community, I'm excited to share a project I've been working on: Pterocos, a brand-new, free, open-source code editor that runs entirely in your browser via WebAssembly. What it does: 💎 Ruby support – write and run Ruby code directly in your browser using Ruby.wasm, no installation needed 🌐 Built on Monaco Editor (the engine behind VS Code) 🤖 Integrated AI assistant for debugging and code suggestions 📦 Multi-language support: Ruby, Python, Rust, C#, PHP, Java, Lua, SQL (SQLite & DuckDB), and more 🔒 Privacy-first: your code stays in your browser's local storage by default 🌍 Optional sharing: publish projects publicly and get feedback from the community Try it here: https://pterocos.eu.org/ GitHub: https://github.com/aminkheddache-dotcom/Pterocos Why I'm sharing this with you: This is a brand-new editor, and feedback from experienced Ruby developers like you matters a lot. I want to make sure the Ruby experience is solid – from syntax highlighting to code execution. Your input would be invaluable in shaping the future of this tool. Some specific questions for the Ruby community: What Ruby features would you expect from a browser-based editor? Are there any Ruby-specific workflows you'd like to see (e.g., RSpec integration, Rails support)? Does the current Ruby.wasm runtime feel fast enough for your needs? I'd love to hear your thoughts, feature requests, or even bug reports. Thank you for taking the time to check it out! Best regards, Amine KhD
