Getting Started/Examples

Building Mirah

Getting started with Duby and MongoDB
http://boldr.net/getting-started-duby-mongodb
You can create a Duby class and use it in your Java code. It’s because “Duby is Java with Ruby syntax”. And it?s wonderful.

Also Mirah runs well on Google App Engine. Check out the examples/appengine code in the github repository.
Working demo of examples/appendinge: http://duby-app.appspot.com/

Here is a web framework written for duby:
