Gembox is a little sinatra app that ties in with your local ruby gems to let you browse and learn more about them.

Please see the project home page for a full description:

code.quirkey.com/gembox

Install gembox:

sudo gem install gembox

On the command-line:

$ gembox

And it should launch gembox in your browser.

To use Gembox with Passenger Pane there are a few simple steps you need to do:

$ git clone git://github.com/quirkey/gembox.git
$ open ./gembox/

Then open up Passenger Pane and drag the open Gembox folder into the list on the left (You’ll have to be authenticated). Now browse to gembox.local/ and you’ll see gembox! I told you it was simple.
