can

Check books: Ruby for System Administration and Everyday Scripting
with Ruby. You’ll find lot of ways Ruby can be used apart from Web
development.
I’m JUST beginning my study of Ruby, and I still have a really long way
to
go. (That’s why my questions are what they are…)
I was wondering if anyone uses Ruby “outside” the Web development/
maintenance “environment?” If so, in what way?
Thanks,

I’m using Ruby for game development, myself. Performance may not be that
high (compared to C, say), but development is fast and pretty smooth
sailing. A really good choice for retro 2D games or the ever popular
rapid-development contests like LD48.
