- Introducing 'rv', a new Ruby management tool combining Ruby version and gem management.
- Inspired by Python's 'uv', 'rv' aims to provide speed, reliability, and functionality.
- Features include 'rv exec' for running CLI commands with isolated environments and 'rv tool install' for gem-based CLI tools.
- Script support allows running Ruby scripts with specified Ruby versions and gems automatically.
- Written in Rust for speed, 'rv' can install precompiled Ruby versions quickly.
- The tool is designed to eliminate the need for multiple separate Ruby management tools.
- Early development includes contributions from notable Ruby community members.
- Available for testing with future plans for expansion and improvement.
