  • pragmatic_ql

    Pragmatic simple query language for JSON based APIs

  • Interestingly we wanted the API to use GraphQL but due to some technical debt we couldn't do that so we created own solution https://github.com/Pobble/pragmatic_ql therefore the API is written in pure Rails render json: { } like described in article https://blog.eq8.eu/article/rspec-json-api-testing.html

  • graphql

    Ruby implementation of GraphQL

  • If you do go the API route though, strongly consider using GraphQL with the (graphql-ruby)[https://graphql-ruby.org/] gem.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  • chordbook

    Chord sheets and tab for guitar and ukulele.

  • I'm currently doing this with a new side project: https://github.com/bkeepers/chordbook/
