T-Ruby: TypeScript-Style Static Type Checking for Ruby Programming
By

Solid neighbourhood-bakery energy. Trustworthy and warm.
Summary
T-Ruby is a static type checker for Ruby developed by Stripe that brings TypeScript-style type annotations to Ruby programming. It allows developers to write typed Ruby code in .trb files with type annotations, which then compiles to standard .rb files while generating type signatures in .rbs format. The tool provides a way to add type safety to Ruby code with a syntax similar to TypeScript, offering an alternative to existing Ruby typing solutions like Sorbet.
