Rails - Sep 2013 - Introducing Web Console 1.0 [Google Summer of Code 2013 Project]

Hi There,

My name is Genadi and for the last 2 months, me and Guillermo Iguaran have 
been working on bringing rails console to the browser under the Google 
Summer of Code 2013 program. We named the project Web
Console<http://gsamokovarov.com/web-console>and as of this week, we
consider the project stable and have released
1.0.0 <https://github.com/rails/web-console/releases/tag/v1.0.0>.

The great thing about the project is that it sneaks in a full-featured 
terminal emulator in the browser, so features like colors, auto completion, 
auto indentation work out of the box. That means that you can even run Pry 
and have its advanced features available. Running less or Vim inside of it 
is not a problem.

Because of the terminal emulator running most of the terminal applications 
just fine, we provide you a way to actually other commands than `rails 
console`. For example, if you are running a Unix flavor, you can run 
`login` to authenticate a user and spawn a login shell for it. I call that 
a poor man''s solution to SSH servers ;]

You can check out the project on
GitHub<https://github.com/rails/web-console> for
a bit more documentation on what the project can do and how (if you want 
to) to configure it to your likings.

Regards,
Genadi Samokovarov

This is really cool! I''m super excited to get playing with it. 

Out of curiosity, do you know if all of the other google summer of code 
project ideas have been filled? The project idea list doesn''t look like
it''s been updated to indicate who actually got the Summer of Code
grants to
do the projects.  https://github.com/rails/gsoc2013/wiki/Ideas

I''d love to work on some of these, but I''d like to avoid
duplicating
effort.

Hi Earl,

You can see this year''s accepted projects at 
http://weblog.rubyonrails.org/2013/5/27/rails-google-summer-of-code-projects/. 
I guess that the guys will update the page again (or create a new one) 
during the preparation for the next Summer of Code (should Rails apply 
again). This should be around February/March of 2014. Other than that you 
can always apply with your own idea :)
