List of some useful gems :)

Hi

This is an active post and it will be updated now and then when ever i come forward any interesting gem which is really awesome and helpful. Git-hub looks to me a like a gold mine for developers, and here are some of the treasures :

* Devise: 

  – Devise is a flexible authentication solution for Rails based on Warden.

  – Is Rack based. 

  – Is a complete MVC solution based on Rails engines. 

  – Allows you to have multiple roles (or models/scopes) signed in at the same        time.

  – Is based on a modularity concept: use just what you really need.

  – Rails cast tutorial :  http://railscasts.com/episodes/209-introducing-devise

* SASS

  – Sass makes CSS fun again. Sass is an extension of CSS3, adding nested   

    rules, variables, mixins, selector inheritance, and more. It’s translated to

    well-formatted, standard CSS using the command line tool or a web    

    framework plugin.  


* Bootstrap
  – Bootstrap is Twitter’s toolkit for kickstarting CSS for websites, apps, and  
    more. It includes base CSS styles for typography, forms, buttons, tables, 
    grids, navigation, alerts, and more.


* Tabs on Rails
 – TabsOnRails is a simple Rails plugin for creating tabs and navigation menus. 
   It provides helpers for generating navigation menus with a flexible interface.



* Watir
 – Watir, pronounced water, is an open-source (BSD) family of Ruby libraries for 
    automating web browsers. It supports your app no matter what technology it 
    is developed in. They support Internet Explorer on Windows, Firefox and 
    Chrome on Windows, Mac and Linux and Safari on Mac.  


* Radient
 – Radiant is a no-fluff, open source content management system designed for 
   small teams. It is similar to Textpattern or MovableType, but is a general 
   purpose content management system (not just a blogging engine)

* Geocoder
 – Geocoder is a complete geocoding solution for Ruby. God dammit its so easy       to implement and your app is packed all the google maps goodness in               minutes.
