Ruby Webbrowser
in [Ruby]
|
From: Kai Dölger on 31 Jul 2010 09:13 Hey Guys, I am new to Ruby and wanted to create a little project for learning Ruby, but it turned out that it would be a lot more work, then I considered. My I idea was writing a Ruby Web Browser. So now I search for programmers interested in this Idea. Why should we do this: I think everyone uses webbrowsers so we can achieve an increase of Ruby's popularity. What is the Problem: We need a good HTML-Render-Engine => LOT of work to do! Solution: Teamwork! If there is a big the team the single person has less work to do then in a small development group. What we need: -People who help me with the Design of the Programm -Programmers familiar with GUI-Programming -Persons familiar with Webbrowsers an how they work But I think If the first step is done there will be something like a layout for the single Renderer Classes so everyone knowing ruby can contribute somthing to the project! Hope you will like the Idea. Greets from Germany, Kai -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Please no. There are too many browsers to target already. If you do, please use an existing engine.

Try something less complex first like a small kernel. If you want to write ruby bindings to webkit, then by all means, have fun. > > What we need: > -People who help me with the Design of the Programm > -Programmers familiar with GUI-Programming > -Persons familiar with Webbrowsers an how they work > You'll need way more than this. lol. http://www.w3.org/TR/ have fun reading the several specs you'd need to implement. You would be doing the world much more good if you were to focus your attention towards improving the performance of nokogiri or writing a better GC for Ruby.

From: Dhruva Sagar on 31 Jul 2010 11:20 I think he meant Garbage Collection when he mentioned GC -- Thanks & Regards, Dhruva Sagar.
