CSS-Only Chat
A truly monstrous async web chat using no JS whatsoever
css-only-chat is a proof-of-concept demonstration that implements a functioning chat interface using only HTML and CSS, without any JavaScript or backend logic. The project showcases creative use of CSS selectors, checkboxes, labels, and the :checked pseudo-class to mimic interactive behaviors normally handled by JavaScript. Messages are pre-written in the HTML and displayed based on user interaction, making it more of a playful experiment than a real messaging platform. Its main purpose is to illustrate the limits of CSS as a programming and UI tool, serving as both an educational example and a bit of humor within the developer community. By pushing CSS beyond its conventional role, it demonstrates how user interfaces can be simulated through styling tricks and static structures. Although not suitable for production use, it stands as a fun exercise in front-end creativity and unconventional coding challenges. -

Grape
An opinionated framework for creating REST-like APIs in Ruby
Grape is a Ruby framework for building REST-like APIs with a focus on simplicity and convention. It provides a DSL for declaring endpoints, parameters, formats, and validation rules, making it easy to build consistent and documented APIs. Grape supports multiple content types (JSON, XML, etc.), versioning, error handling, and authentication hooks, which are crucial for maintaining long-lived APIs. It integrates well with frameworks like Rails or Sinatra but can also be used standalone for microservices. Built-in tools like parameter coercion, strong validations, and automatic documentation (via Swagger integrations) reduce boilerplate and improve maintainability. Because it’s lightweight and purpose-built, Grape is popular in service-oriented architectures where clean, well-structured APIs are central. -
8
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. -

Jekyll::Gzip
Generate gzipped assets and files for your Jekyll site at build time
Generate gzipped assets and files for your Jekyll site at build time. Performance in web applications is important. You know that, which is why you have created a static site using Jekyll. But you want a bit more performance. You're serving your assets and files gzipped, but you're making your webserver do it? Why not just generate those gzip files at build time? And with the maximum compression too? Jekyll::Gzip does just that. Add the gem to your Jekyll application and when you build your site it will generate gzip files for all text based files (HTML, CSS, JavaScript, etc). Zlib's gzipping capabilities don't quite squeeze all the compression out of our files that we could want. If you want a slower but better compression algorithm, check out Jekyll::Zopfli. Zopfli is about the best compression we can get out of the gzip format, but there's more! Brotli is a relatively new compression format that is now supported by many browsers and can produce even smaller files. -

Jekyll::Typogrify
A Jekyll plugin that improves the typography of your Liquid templates
Improves typography on your Jekyll site using typogruby, titlecase, and some other useful functions. Converts an ampersand (ex. &) converts a & surrounded by optional whitespace or a non-breaking space to the HTML entity and surrounds it in a span with a styled class. Surrounds two or more consecutive capital letters, perhaps with interspersed digits and periods in a span with a styled class. Typogruby cap module doesn't support having hyphens so there is a custom module. Converts special characters (excluding HTML tags) to HTML entities. Encloses initial single or double quotes, or their entities (optionally preceded by a block element and perhaps an inline element) with a span that can be styled. Applies smartpants to a given piece of text. Replaces space(s) before the last word (or tag before the last word) before an optional closing element (a, em, span, strong) before a closing tag (p, h[1-6], li, dt, dd) or the end of the string. -

Lolcat
Rainbows and unicorns
Lolcat is a command-line tool that colorizes terminal output by printing text in rainbow gradients. Inspired by the original Ruby “lolcat” project, it takes input from stdin or files and outputs the same text with colorful ANSI escape codes. It’s frequently used to add a playful touch to logs, help messages, or shell scripts, making otherwise mundane terminal output more fun. Options allow customizing color spread, speed, and randomization to create different rainbow effects. Lolcat is often piped into commands like cat, figlet, or fortune to create whimsical and eye-catching console art. Despite being lighthearted in purpose, it demonstrates the use of ANSI codes and stream manipulation in a clean, portable way. -

Rack::Attack
Rack middleware for blocking & throttling
Protect your Rails and Rack apps from bad clients. Rack::Attack lets you easily decide when to allow, block and throttle based on properties of the request. Rack middleware for blocking & throttling abusive requests. Tackling each curious anomaly that threatens your site’s reliability saps developer productivity and happiness. Rack::Attack lets you throttle abusive requests with just a few lines of code. For the security of our users, we have a stricter throttle for login attempts. This makes it very time consuming for attackers to guess users’ passwords. We also use the IPCat ruby library to detect requests from well-known datacenters. Rack::Attack can also track requests without blocking them. We rely on Rack::Attack to let developers quickly track and throttle requests. It helps keep our site reliable, so we can spend more energy building better features. We’re glad to make it publicly available to the open-source community. -

Ransack
Object-based searching
Create search forms for your Ruby on Rails application with Ransack! Ransack is available in two modes: simple and advanced, allowing you to create either simple or advanced search forms. Simple mode works much like MetaSearch and is very easy to set up. The advanced mode makes use of Rails' nested attributes functionality in order to generate complex queries with nested AND/OR groupings, etc. This involves more complexity but does produce some very interesting search interfaces and puts more power in the hands of users. Ransack is compatible with Rails 5.0, 5.1, 5.2 and 6.0, and on Ruby 2.3 and later. -

RubyMoney
A Ruby Library for dealing with money and currency conversion
RubyMoney is a widely adopted Ruby library that provides a robust and precise way to represent and manipulate monetary values in software applications. It is designed around the principle that financial calculations must avoid floating point errors, and therefore represents values internally as integers in the smallest currency unit, such as cents. The library introduces a Money class that encapsulates both the numeric value and the associated currency, ensuring that operations are always context-aware and accurate. It also includes a Money::Currency class that stores metadata such as currency codes, symbols, and formatting rules, enabling consistent handling of international currencies. The library supports arithmetic operations, comparisons, and currency conversion through configurable exchange rate providers, making it suitable for both simple and complex financial systems. -
