Pry-- The Good Parts!
summary
Pry is a drop‑in replacement for irb that claims to cut debugging time by giving a real interactive console mid‑run and it delivers: binding.pry opens a REPL at the point of failure so code can be inspected and modified, the REPL reloads edited files automatically, special locals like _ and _file track outputs and files, and commands such as edit --x and $ show source speed fixes. Plugins like pry-rescue and pry-stack-explorer attach the REPL to exceptions, pry-debugger adds stepping, and the project reports about 2 million downloads and 71 contributors.
