Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Ruby 3.3
that's surprising considering `pry`[1] is such an amazing debugger IMO.

Enhancing development with REPLs - A practical guide
All of my recent tutorials and projects were primarily managed using the default Ruby REPL, irb, and I must say it's been nothing short of amazing. However, what ultimately prompted me to switch to Pry was its offering of better defaults. But what exactly does that mean? Let me demonstrate:
- Free/low cost IDE recommendations please. :)
-
Debugging Help
For older versions: Pry Gem

Anyone else working through Michael Hartl's Learn Enough RoR Series that might be able to help me with a failing unit test?
To do that, I would install `pry` into your rails project and then use it look around right before your test fails.https://github.com/pry/pry
- I made a tool to help cleanly copy & paste code from irb/pry sessions
-
shell-maker: Make your own shell in 15 lines of elisp (batteries included)
This means I can be editing a shell script and easily inject arbitrary regions into a shell buffer for immediate testing (point never leaves the window where I am editing, and I can view the shell output in an adjacent window). This is similar to what Robe does with Pry within an inferior Ruby process using comint.

Building GitHub with Ruby on Rails
https://pry.github.io/ - also a lot of features from Pry have made it into the default IRB these days, but I still use pry. I don't know the equivalent commands in IRB.

Is parallel threading never going to be a thing?
For debugging, while not multi-threaded, to my knowledge, is the pry gem for debugging. There are a few different flavors, for instance, my favorite is pry-byebug.

Why does pry/Zeitwerk have issues loading constants in breakpoint context?
Just pry or with byebug? If the latter: https://github.com/deivid-rodriguez/byebug/issues/564
-
How can you debug Rspec tests with VSCode?
Byebug is not fully compatible with Zeitwerk, I was getting random NameError exceptions failing to load constants in development and tests until I removed this gem.

Improve Code in Your Ruby Application with RubyCritic
byebug - this elevates debugging Ruby applications. It allows you to run a program line by line, add breakpoints, and evaluate and track values at runtime. If you still use puts for debugging, it's time you get to know Byebug's features and commands.

From byebug to ruby/debug
Immune from the compatibility issue with Zeitwerk

Ruby on Rails(ROR) development environment setup(Mac OS)
For debugging purposes, I recommend a few gems that will get you started and allow you to play with ruby code in your terminal and manage ruby gems. Gems like bundler pry and byebug do it good and you can check out the official docs, Pry, Byebug, Bundler, These gems need to be accessed globally.

Bust Bugs with the Byebug Bug Debugger
Byebug is a helpful and easy-to-use debugger made for Ruby. It allows developers to use traditional debugging features to help identify what is happening in a program while it's running. Byebug was created by David Rodriguez in hopes of building a better Ruby debugger.
-
What gem is used with conjunction with "pry" for step by step debugging?
Others have been suggesting byebug, but for us it started causing random constant loading errors on Ruby 3 in Rails, due to Zeitwerk compatibility issues. So I'm quite happy that the debug gem came in as a replacement. I did like that pry-byebug allows stepping in a normal Pry console, I expect the debug gem will require some getting used to.
-
Some Helpful Ruby Gems
As far as debugging tools go, the Byebug and Pry are two of the best gems I have found. They are used in different contexts, but for all intents and purposes, including them in your code will halt an operation and allow you to access whatever point in the code you halted within your terminal with a REPL.

Rails 7 introduces a new debugging gem
We commonly use byebug for debugging our code which is an easy-to-use, feature-rich ruby debugger. This gem is introduced in Rails 5. It offers features like Stepping, Breaking, Evaluating and Tracking.
-
Rails 7 replaced byebug with ruby/debug
Looking forward to this, byebug's Zeitwerk incompatibility is currently causing nondeterministic constant loading errors in our app when used with pry-byebug.
