    GUI implementations by Glimmer DSL for SWT & Glimmer DSL for LibUI for the first Befunge-98 interpreter in Ruby

  • In light of the recent Beta release of Glimmer DSL for LibUI, I have been looking for applications that could take advantage of its productivity and speed in building desktop GUI with its Ruby DSL. One such application has been Befunge98 GUI, built for a Ruby implementation of the Befunge98 programming language done by Victor Maslov (GitHub username: Nakilon).

  • glimmer-dsl-libui

    Glimmer DSL for LibUI - Prerequisite-Free Ruby Desktop Development Cross-Platform Native GUI Library - The Quickest Way From Zero To GUI - If You Liked Shoes, You'll Love Glimmer! - No need to pre-install any prerequisites. Just install the gem and have platform-independent GUI that just works on Mac, Windows, and Linux.

  • In fact, I built its GUI twice with two different approaches, one using the up and coming Glimmer DSL for LibUI on CRuby relying on a multi-canvas-grid (LibUI area) approach, and one using the very mature Glimmer DSL for SWT on JRuby by relying on a button-grid approach.

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.

    Glimmer DSL for SWT (JRuby Desktop Development Cross-Platform Native GUI Framework) - The Quickest Way From Zero To GUI - If You Liked Shoes, You'll Love Glimmer!

  • Glimmer

    DSL Framework consisting of a DSL Engine and a Data-Binding Library used in Glimmer DSL for SWT (JRuby Desktop Development GUI Framework), Glimmer DSL for Opal (Pure Ruby Web GUI), Glimmer DSL for LibUI (Prerequisite-Free Ruby Desktop Development GUI Library), Glimmer DSL for Tk (Ruby Tk Desktop Development GUI Library), Glimmer DSL for GTK (Ruby-GNOME Desktop Development GUI Library), Glimmer DSL for XML (& HTML), and Glimmer DSL for CSS

  • Thanks to Glimmer's highly productive GUI DSLs, both implementations took me no more than a few hours. In fact, they both took 5 minutes for the initial simplest version that received Befunge input from GUI and rendered output to terminal. Afterwards, the simplest version was upgraded with bidirectional synchronization between the input grid and input multiline-entry/text field in addition to auto-saving/loading of the last program entered and a window-based output terminal or a read-only multiline-entry output control.

  • JRuby

    JRuby, an implementation of Ruby on the JVM
