What about Limelight?

Hi all,

  I am a Ruby GUI freak. Every once in a while, I'll google something
like "ruby gui api". So far, though, I have only worked with FXRuby
because of its, IMO, excellent book, which I bought in Amazon.

Books are overrated in a space as fast-moving as the Ruby world. Have
you looked at Monkeybars?

While
looking into GUIs, I came across LimeLight, an API for JRuby. I tried
out a few of the examples, and I liked what I saw. But I wonder... why
is it rarely mentioned in these forums?

It's very new. It certainly looks promising.

Is it not a regular GUI API?
Though I have not delved into the API itself, it seems to have a
different concept about GUI programming (like, setting up "stages" or
something). Is there a reason for this,

Probably that the developers thought it would be clearer...

or is it not that well known?
I'm just curious, more than anything.

Best,

···
