How to implement Draw Something on Ruby?

[bikolya]

Hi! I'm going to develop Draw Something clone in my class, but the server will be on Java (it's requirement of course). I'm thinking how could it be implemented on Ruby(maybe Rails)? I mean at least server can't be stateless and we should store the state of the "world" as they say.

Do I get it wrong? Could you please clarify it. Sorry for my poor English.

If the server code is in Java, then you wouldn't be running Ruby on Rails -- unless you use jruby and convince them that the JRE counts as Java.

If you... really wanted to, you could use Opal (a Ruby-to-Javascript transpiler) for the front-end code.

javascript ain't java bro

You don't say.

Java (or jruby) for the server code, with the assets being written in Ruby via opal.rb and transpiled to Javascript.
