Hi guys,

Have you every thought to use Ruby in your Rails project instead of
CoffeeScript to write your Javascript? I just found opal-rails which allows
to develop Javascript with Ruby:

https://github.com/opal/opal-rails

I am not sure about the maturity of the project but this could allow us to
extend Rails to work, if needed, as the Meteor Framework:

client? do
  # use jquery
  # use angular.js
end

server? do
  # back end stuff
end

What do you think?

I see that is also possible to use Ruby on node.js:
https://github.com/opal/opal-node#readme.

Cheers,
