his comment on gosu made me sad. as a big ruby fan, i run into the "framework looks wonderful, but due to installation issues i cannot in good conscience recommend it to a beginner" far too often. the one-click installer projects for windows and osx are going a long way towards fixing this, though.
- rurounijones 14y agoI cannot recommend ruby for any desktop applications that you intend to distribute to non-tech-savvy users. Sure there are ways it can be done, jruby + swing and shooes or monkeybars etc but they all have big drawbacks compared to "Just Works" languages. [EDIT] Having said that, the releasey gem used by gosu looks interesting.
