RubyMotion is a brand new project built by the creator of MacRuby that finally brings the power of native Ruby application development to iOS. RubyMotion gives you a way to quickly bootstrap, compile, deploy code written in Ruby that accesses all the raw power of the Cocoa Touch and Core Foundation APIs.

Under the hood, Objective C shares a lot in common with RubyMotion. We'll explore how it works and integrates with the Objective C runtime, get a taste of its flexibility, see some demos in action, and talk about the pitfalls that await the brave souls who live on the cutting edge.
