This is awesome! I experimented successfully last year with running wxWidgets in Ruby using: https://github.com/Hanmac/rwx It worked on Linux, but it had a very slow library compilation time as no compiled version was provided out of the box. Still, it was a step in the right direction. My goal is to wrap wxWidgets with a Glimmer GUI DSL: https://github.com/AndyObtiva/glimmer Glimmer provides DSLs following the Ruby way and Convention over Configuration for many GUI libraries like LibUI, Tk, SWT, GTK, Fox Toolkit, Swing, and JavaFX, among others. I will look into wxruby3. Thank you for sharing and reviving a very useful desktop development project. By the way, if you want to learn more about Glimmer, check out Glimmer DSL for LibUI: https://github.com/AndyObtiva/glimmer-dsl-libui My plan is to provide something similar for wxWidgets.

For those of you (still) interested in building desktop GUI applications with Ruby this might be interesting.
A first public beta of the newly revived wxRuby3 has been released. Like former editions of this project wxRuby3 aims to provide a native extension wrapping the popular C++ wxWidgets GUI framework libraries. If you are interested check this out:
