I do not know Ruby and I am interested to learn MacRuby.
What would you recommend as your best resource (books, blogs, sites) to learn MacRuby?
Found:http://www.macruby.org/

+2  A: 

If you don't know ruby then these 3 books will bring you up to speed relatively quickly. The nice thing is that you can use "Design Patterns in Ruby" as your primary text and the other 2 as reference texts (although you should definitely read "The Ruby Programming Language" all the way through at some point):

  1. The Ruby Programming Language
  2. The Pickaxe Book
  3. Design Patterns in Ruby

+1 for "The Ruby Programming Language", excellent book! But IMO Pickaxe is overrated. Design Patterns in Ruby is also a fantastic book.

I found MacRuby: The Definitive Guide, by Matt Aimonetti very helpful for getting started with MacRuby.

I enjoyed Why's (poignant) Guide to Ruby for getting started with Ruby. Go "chunky bacon"!
