@headius@mastodon.social ImageVoodoo as the Warbler example is tempting me to revisit JRuby, because one of the virtues of the JRE is that it probably has enough of a platform library that my apps won't require a poorly managed stream of interdependent libraries.
I have a side project that runs on NodeJS + Express + a pure-JS image library, compositing text and simple image layers, which works well enough for now, but was tedious to put together. I wonder what #PixieReport might look like as a JRuby web app?

@jmeowmeow@hachyderm.io If I found the right pixiereport, it would probably be just a couple lines of code in JRuby and no external deps. And it would be trivial to run and deploy. Worth a try I'd say!
