Ruby is a pure object-oriented (everything in Ruby is an object) interpreted (no need for a compiler) language. Tl;Dr excellent for learning, a joy to use, less hot than js/python It is well known for: - Its eloquence & readability, making it a great choice for beginners, and a pleasure to use for experienced devs - Ruby On Rails, an MVC framework that is excellent for rapid prototyping of small to medium sized web apps - Friendly community - lots of learning resources & solid documentation Cons: - not as ubiquitous as js: smaller community, less resources - not as much entry level ruby jobs - not so good for huge codebases - not as fast as a compiled language, a problem shared by all interpreted languages (js, python,..)

Rumors are just rumors. Everything that is needed to see is the potenciality of the language itself
