Let's have fun with Ruby and Shoes! :-D
Green Shoes is a Ruby domain specific language for beautiful Desktop Applications. The Green Shoes dsl is so simple, even your pointy haired boss can understand it. The Green Shoes project is based on _why-the-lucky-stiff's Shoes, except for the following:
- Green Shoes source code is all Ruby, so even you can contribute.
- Green Shoes takes the Ruby DSL block-style approach, so all you have to do is write what you know: Ruby.
Here is a quick example to get the juices flowing:
require 'green_shoes'
Shoes.app( :width => 250, :height => 250 ) do
para 'Hello, world!'
image 'images/shoes.png'
end
There are a lot of samples here in the sample box.
Since Green Shoes is a Ruby Gem, all you need to install are:
- Ruby 1.9 or above
- Gems 1.5 or above
- ruby-gtk2 package 0.90.7 or above
Once you have all three requirements, you can simply install with this command:
gem install green_shoes
