Perform functions like complex text rendering, basic shape drawing (blending operators, gradients, etc.), unit conversion, merging a tuple into a new tuple, using a prototype API, and more.
A creational design pattern called prototype enables duplicating objects—even complicated ones—without attaching them to particular classes. The prototype pattern assigns the actual objects that are being replicated in the cloning process. All prototype classes should share a standard interface that allows object duplication even when the concrete classes of the objects are unknown. The clone method is implemented similarly by all classes. The process creates a new object of the current class while copying over all the field values from the old object. You can even clone private fields because most computer languages permit objects to access the private fields of other objects that belong to the same class.
A prototype is something that allows for cloning. If your objects have dozens of fields and hundreds of possible configurations, cloning them could be preferable to subclassing them. Access to frequently used prototypes is made simple via the prototype registry. It keeps a collection of ready-to-copy pre-built items.
Check out the below list to find the best Ruby prototype libraries for your application:
serveby jlong
Serve is a small Rack-based web server and rapid prototyping framework for Web applications (specifically Rails apps). Serve is meant to be a lightweight version of the Views part of the Rails MVC. This makes Serve an ideal framework for prototyping Rails applications or creating simple websites. Serve has full support for Rails-style partials and layouts.
