Announcing IsItJruby.com

| Comments

Ever wondered if a certain Ruby Gem works on JRuby? Wonder no more. I just launched IsItJruby.com, a community-driven Gem compatibility website. If you’re familiar with IsItRuby19.com, you’ll notice a lot of similarities (ie: blatant rip-off). It’s simply because I forked Brightbox’s GitHub project to build isitjruby.com. Brightbox should get all the credit.

Although I didn’t change the UI (because it’s so gorgeous already!), I added the following features:

  • Gem page lists dependencies

  • Warning when Gem contains C extensions (since they don’t work on JRuby)

  • Ability to specify the JRuby version against which the Gem was tested

I accept patches, so fork away!
