Ruby (programming language)

Ruby is a computer programming language. It's a way for people to give instructions to a computer so it can do things, like make websites or software programs for us. Ruby makes it easier for people to code, because it's a 'friendly language'. That means it tries to be human friendly and not so confusing. It's like speaking English instead of a different language. When you're coding, you use something called 'syntax' to tell the computer exactly what you want it to do. With Ruby, the syntax is easy to learn and understand.
