About

Ruflet Explorer

Features
Read full description

Ruflet is a modern Ruby framework that brings native app development into the Ruby ecosystem by leveraging Flutter’s rendering engine as its core runtime. It allows developers to build fully native applications for mobile, desktop, and web using a simple and expressive Ruby DSL. Ruflet supports both server-driven UI (ideal for rapid iteration and Rails integration) and self-contained apps powered by an embedded Ruby runtime, enabling apps to run directly on the device without a backend dependency. With a growing ecosystem of widgets, built-in services (like camera, maps, and more), and seamless integration with Ruby on Rails, Ruflet bridges the gap between backend and frontend development. It gives Ruby developers the ability to ship high-performance, native apps without leaving their familiar environment combining productivity, flexibility, and modern cross-platform capabilities.
