%h2.center What
%p
RubyX
%b compiles
ruby code to binary.
%br
In
%b 100%
pure ruby.
%p
The goal here is to prove that dynamic languages do not have to be slow.
%br
Only interpretation is slow, but when
ruby is
%b compiled to binary
,it can be really fast.
%p
How fast (X times), will eventually depend on the community.
The RubyX approach works, but to create an mri compatible ruby will
take many more man-years than i have.
%p
RubyX is here to

=link_to "empower you" , "/project/motivation.html"
to make your ruby shine as much as you like.

%h2.center Status
%p
The RubyX compiler is working, and the
=link_to "architecture", "/rubyx/layers.html"
has been refined over several years.
%p
While the
=ext_link "parser" , "https://github.com/whitequark/parser"
parses 100% of ruby, currently basics are implemented:
%ul
%li
Object oriented
=succeed "." do
=link_to "calling semantics" , "/rubyx/calling.html"
%li
Dynamic
= succeed "." do
=link_to "method resolution" ,"/rubyx/method_resolution.html"
%li
Control Structures, variables and assignment, integer operators.
%li
Object based
=succeed "." do
=link_to "memory" ,"/rubyx/memory.html"
%li
A minimal Runtime of

=link_to "classes, types" , "/rubyx/parfait.html"
methods and basic types.
%li
=ext_link "Risc machine abstraction" , "https://github.com/ruby-x/rubyx/tree/master/lib/risc"
(includes extensible instruction)
%li
A minimal Arm and Elf implementation to create

%b working binaries
%h2.center Upcomping work
%p
Obviously there is still a lot of work, here are just the next few topics
%ul
%li Benchmarks for calling and integer (ie fibo)
%li Blocks
%li Start stdlib with String
By then we may be in the foothills, but nowhere near even basecamp, let alone there.

%h2.center Docs
%p
The short introduction is under the
=link_to "architecture" , "/rubyx/layers.html"
menu.
%p
To get to know the system, there is also an interpreter and a basic
=succeed "." do
=link_to "visual debugger" , "rubyx/debugger.html"
%p
The
=link_to "about", "/project/motivation.html"
section has some info of when and how this started. If you feel like contributing
=link_to "read this", "/project/contribute.html"
or write a

Last but not least, i try to get recent developments down on paper when they are
still fresh.
