Hey all, I'll be working on The Ruby Toolbox as my main project in december and january and I'm running a community survey to learn what you'd like to see built, please have a look at ruby-toolbox.com/blog/2018-11-0… for more details - I'm looking forward to your feedback!

Happy Friday everyone! I just shipped a new project health indicators feature to The Ruby Toolbox to help in understanding the maintenance status of projects more easily. Read more about them on the blog: ruby-toolbox.com/blog/2018-12-1…

Happy new year everyone! In an effort to make the site more welcoming and accessible the The Ruby Toolbox now features a new landing page: ruby-toolbox.com/blog/2019-01-0… Let me know what you think, your feedback is highly appreciated :)

Hey all, a new feature has arrived and will hopefully improve your Ruby Toolbox search experience - Bugfix fork detection. Find out more in the announcement at ruby-toolbox.com/blog/2019-01-1…

Time for a new feature! You can now compare any custom set of projects with the new project comparisons feature. You can find out more about it in the release announcement at ruby-toolbox.com/blog/2019-02-1…

I'm wrapping up my work on the Ruby Toolbox as my main project today, and I have one final feature announcement, trending projects: ruby-toolbox.com/blog/2019-02-2… I hope it'll be useful to you :)

PSA: Short maintenance downtime upcoming to bump the postgres database version, I'll post again once it's all sorted

And it's back up

There's a new (belated) feature announcement post, for rubygem release heat maps: ruby-toolbox.com/blog/2020-01-0…

Hey everyone, you can now read project readmes directly on Ruby Toolbox project pages: ruby-toolbox.com/blog/2020-10-3…

@ConstantOrbit Hm, awkward. Thanks for the report, I'll check it out :)

The toolbox will go down in a bit for a server move that also involves a DNS update. Sorry for the inconvenience!

Server move is completed. The DNS seems to propagate pretty fast as well - restarting your browser might help (or at least it did for me)

I changed SSL cert providers - everything should be going fine, but let me know if it doesn't :)

So, the The Ruby Toolbox server apparently died tonight. I have tried my best to at least maintain connectivity via rubytoolbox.herokuapp.com ...

The Ruby Toolbox ...but DNS TTL is high on the domain. Further steps will need a long-overdue deliberation, I guess.

So, after a long evening we have a rudimentary, static page serving the categories back online on ruby-toolbox.com

Next step will be: Create github issue to discuss the future. Left as as an excercise for another day, sorry!

Finally got around to opening a place to discuss the future of the Ruby Toolbox. I'd like to invite you to github.com/rubytoolbox/ru…

Aaand... The Ruby Toolbox is back! ruby-toolbox.com/blog/2018-02-0…
