RubyMotion- Mobile & Beyond
summary
RubyMotion claims to let you build native iOS/Android/macOS apps in Ruby using command-line tools; demo creates a tvOS weather app with three tabs (Vienna, Calgary, Lethbridge) that fetches JSON weather via the czweatherkit CocoaPod, converts icons to characters and updates labels asynchronously — API calls take ~5–10s but the app runs in the simulator. Tooling shown: REPL, BubbleWrap, RedPotion; testing with Bacon, deployment via motion_provisioning and motion app store; Starter edition is free with a branded splash and API limits.
