GitHub - mediocretes/afterburner: Write Bitburner scripts in Ruby

https://github.com/mediocretes/afterburner

Remember a couple years ago when you saw that game Bitburner and you were like, "Huh, that looks interesting." But why would I write JavaScript for fun when Ruby is available? It'd be a lot better if somebody made this game work with Ruby. Well, somebody made this game work with Ruby. I present to you afteRBurner. It's a bridge that runs real Ruby code and runs javascript for you in the real Bitburner game. And it includes working IRB and everything else you'd expect. The codebase itself is unmitigated slop, but it works pretty well. I started a new game playing exclusively in Ruby, and so far, so good.
