Ruby support can be added to any modern Android application by adding JRuby as a dependency.
The Ruboto project aims to add some additional sample code to make the integration between Java, Ruby, and the Android platform a pleasant developer experience. The Apps created thereafter depend on JRuby (jruby-jars) at runtime to provide full access to Android's Java APIs. Installation is straight-forward and easy. Please read the Requirements.
Ruboto has a command-line interface which lets you complete common tasks quickly and painlessly.
Use Ruby to access the Android API and test your apps.
