What is rubinius? I saw it in Ruby Weekly but I don't understand what it is after reading the website

Question

Is it a thing that let you understand ruby core? http://rubini.us/

Answer 1

It's a project to provide an alternative Ruby interpreter/compiler. Essentially an optimization effort to make Ruby run faster after the regular code is translated into machine code. It is likely something to look at if you have a complex Ruby app that has heavy use - and at that point if you're running into a wall with what Ruby can do, you could try this alternative interpreter to make your code faster.
