Thanks :D Opal is staying there, anyway, as an alternative browser Ruby implementation (like JRuby is for MRI on desktops and servers) and we will aim to produce compatible APIs, so we can have libraries that will work in both environments. And yes, writing browser code in Ruby is indeed great! You can at times forget that you are in a browser. Let's hope our efforts will popularize this approach. On 11/29/22 21:58, Andy Maleh wrote:
Awesome!
In RubyConf 2022’s opening keynote, Matz mentioned that it would be a good goal to aim at replacing JavaScript in the browser with Ruby on Wasm! Opal accomplishes that goal similarly!
It’s great that Matz is indirectly on board with the idea behind Opal too!
