GUI programming in Ruby?

TabulaRasa · 2006-06-26 20:55:11

I am interested in cutting my teeth on a small Ruby project and I want to know what my options are for doing user-interface programming? Preferably in a platform agnostic way. Do I have to use TCL/Tk bindings? Is there some other way? Is there anything like Java/Swing for Ruby? Is it better use JRuby and do the UI in Java?…
