Can anyone provide insight into how mruby's implementation differs from the reference 1.9.3 implementation?
- jgmmo 15y agoIt's meant to be a minimized version of Ruby. Not full-featured, just the bare essentials and meant to be able to run on embedded devices/phones. To do so, mRuby will need to be much smaller than standard Ruby and much faster.
- sciurus 15y ago"Not full-featured, just the bare essentials" Does that just mean a smaller standard library? "mRuby will need to be much smaller than standard Ruby and much faster" Right. I'm looking forward to the mruby authors (or someone else skilled at interpreter design) writing up how that is being accomplished.
