You might want to rename this so people don't confuse it for Adobe's JavaScript library (<a href="http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/spry/home.html" rel="nofollow">http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/spry/home.html</a>)

Hmm, the code translates to Objective-c almost one-to-one. I don't think it shows the potential of RubyMotion.<p>The thing is, when you create a table view in iOS apps, most of the work is for design and interaction like swiping to show a set of controls.

I just hacked this together last night. Assuming it is not too dynamic for the App Store, I think it shows the true potential of RubyMotion.

I was trying to develop a similar library, but realized that I would need migrations pretty quickly. Do you have any ideas about the best way to do database migrations?

RubyMotion has potential but like any intermediary framework it will start to show cracks when building a real world application.

When did "obnoxious" even begin to approximate an adjective for ease?<p>Why are we OK with this conflation of language for marketing gimmicks?

Matt,<p>I'm developing an education app and would love for it to be in Rails. Know where to find a good Rails coder comfortable with RubyMotion and iOS?
