Mruby does not rely on RubyGems. Just saying.

@katafrakt It doesn't run all Ruby, does it?

@katafrakt I mean that you can’t take any code that MRI 3.4 can run and run it on mruby.

@pointlessone @katafrakt all but pattern matching, I think
Show threadPaweł ŚwiątkowskiSep 20, 2025
@pointlessone yeah, that's true. It's more helpful to think of mruby as a separate language rather than Ruby distribution. It doesn't have "require" for example (there is a gem adding it, but I'm not sure how/if it works, and does not support "require_relative" anyway). Pattern matching is absent, not everything from Ruby's stdlib is there.
