Glimmer DSL for LibUI Beta Release
The main trade-off in using Glimmer DSL for LibUI as opposed to Glimmer DSL for SWT or Glimmer DSL for Tk is the fact that SWT and Tk are more mature than mid-alpha libui as GUI toolkits. Still, if there is only a need to build a small simple application, Glimmer DSL for LibUI could be a good convenient choice due to having zero prerequisites beyond the dependencies included in the Ruby gem. Also, just like Glimmer DSL for Tk, its apps start instantly and have a small memory footprint. LibUI is a promising new GUI toolkit that might prove quite worthy in the future.

Gladiator (Glimmer Editor) - Gladiator (short for Glimmer Editor) is a Glimmer DSL for SWT sample project under on-going development that demonstrates how to build a text editor in Ruby using Glimmer DSL for SWT (JRuby Desktop Development GUI Library). It is not intended to be a full-fledged editor by any means, yet mostly a fun educational exercise in using Glimmer. Gladiator is also a personal tool for shaping an editor exactly the way I like, with all the keyboard shortcuts I prefer. I leave building truly professional text editors to software tooling experts who would hopefully use Glimmer one day. Otherwise, I have been happily using Gladiator to develop all my open-source projects since May of 2020.
