  • readstat

    Discontinued CLI app that shows statistics on a reading log.

  • Then I filled out reading_list.rb to load my reading list and provide data for reading_list.erb. This was just a matter of extracting CSV-parsing code from a previous app into a gem, then including it in my component and tying up the loose ends.

  • Bridgetown

    A next-generation progressive site generator & fullstack framework, powered by Ruby

  • Enter Bridgetown, a fork of Jekyll which aims to compete toe-to-toe with its modern JS cousins, providing even more Ruby tools for building static sites. Very exciting.
