## What's mruby
mruby is the lightweight implementation of the Ruby language complying to (part of)
the [ISO standard](http://www.iso.org/iso/iso_catalogue/catalogue_tc/catalogue_detail.htm?csnumber=59579).
Its syntax is Ruby 1.9 compatible.
mruby is the lightweight implementation of the Ruby language complying to (part
of) the [ISO standard][ISO-standard]. Its syntax is Ruby 1.9 compatible.
mruby can be linked and embedded within your application. We provide the interpreter program "mruby" and
the interactive mruby shell "mirb" as examples. You can also compile Ruby programs into compiled byte code
using the mruby compiler "mrbc". All those tools reside in the "bin" directory. "mrbc" is also able to
generate compiled byte code in a C source file, see the "mrbtest" program under the "test" directory
for an example.
