    Ruby on Rails

    Ruby on Rails

    Web Application Framework written in Ruby

    Rails is a web application development framework written in the Ruby programming language. It is designed to make programming web applications easier by making assumptions about what every developer needs to get started. It allows you to write less code while accomplishing more than many other languages and frameworks. Experienced Rails developers also report that it makes web application development more fun.

    FORTRAN Unit Test Framework (FRUIT)

    FORTRAN Unit Test Framework FRUIT - TDD in FORTRAN

    FORTRAN Unit Test Framework, written in FORTRAN 95. So that all FORTRAN features can be tested. FRUIT has assertion, fixture, setup, teardown, report, spec, driver generation. Rake used as build tool. Tutorials at http://fortranxunit.wiki.sourceforge.net The core testing part is in FORTRAN, this part can be used independent of the Ruby codes. The Ruby code is to make fixtures and reports easier. Rake is to build the project elegantly. This project also demonstrate a new way to build mixed language code in an alternative way than Make. Most of the FORTRAN are important in nature, used in nuclear and aerospace codes, etc, and maintained and written actively. Please help to bring TDD practices to the FORTRAN community. The change could be very hard, personally, I quit, since I could not make the change. I hope your organization will be successful. Enjoy a cup of fruit while maintaining FORTRAN !

    Metasploit Framework

    Metasploit Framework

    Metasploit Framework

    Metasploit Framework is a comprehensive penetration-testing and exploit development platform that streamlines the process of discovering, validating, and demonstrating vulnerabilities. It provides a modular architecture—payloads, encoders, exploits, auxiliaries, and post-exploitation modules—so security professionals can piece together complex attack chains or test defensive controls in realistic ways. Built-in features include an exploit database, network scanners, credential harvesters, and frameworks to craft reliable payload delivery while handling target nuances like mitigation bypasses and platform differences. Beyond raw exploitation, the framework includes post-exploitation tooling for lateral movement, persistence, data exfiltration simulations, and evidence collection, enabling red teams to exercise detection and incident response workflows.

    Hanami

    Hanami

    A flexible framework for maintainable Ruby apps

    Hanami is a modern Ruby web framework that aims to be lightweight, fast, and modular, in contrast to the monolithic design of Rails. It emphasizes separation of concerns, encouraging developers to structure applications into clear layers of controllers, views, entities, and repositories. Each component—like the router, model layer, or view rendering engine—can be used independently, which gives developers flexibility to build lean applications. Hanami promotes immutability, plain old Ruby objects, and minimized global state, which makes codebases more maintainable and testable. It supports multi-application setups within the same project, making it well-suited for larger service-oriented architectures. The framework is designed to provide Rails-like productivity while encouraging more explicit architecture and performance-conscious choices.

    Mobility

    Mobility

    Pluggable Ruby translation framework

    Mobility is a gem for storing and retrieving translations as attributes on a class. These translations could be the content of blog posts, captions on images, tags on bookmarks, or anything else you might want to store in different languages. Storage of translations is handled by customizable "backends" which encapsulate different storage strategies. The default way to store translations is to put them all in a set of two shared tables, but many alternatives are also supported, including translatable columns and model translation tables, as well as database-specific storage solutions such as json/jsonb and Hstore (for PostgreSQL).

    Active Admin

    Active Admin

    The administration framework for Ruby on Rails applications

    Active Admin is a Ruby on Rails plugin for generating administration style interfaces. It abstracts common business application patterns to make it simple for developers to implement beautiful and elegant interfaces with very little effort. Customizable global navigation allows you to create usable admin interfaces for your business. Use the bundled Devise configuration or implement your own authorization using the provided hooks. Use scopes to create sections of mutually exclusive resources for quick navigation and reporting. Add buttons, links or other content in the “Action Items” section on each screen. Index screens are available in many styles. The default, shown here, is a table view, but Active Admin also supports Grids, Blocks and a Blog view. Allow users to filter resources by searching strings, text fields, dates, and numeric values. Customize the sidebar sections with a simple DSL built in to Active Admin.
