Thread-based backport of Ruby 3's Ractor concurrency model

Hello!

I'm a Graduate Software Engineer at ETAS, working on EHOOKS.

In my free time I create some side-projects, mainly in Ruby or Rust. Many of these are developer tools, such as the Parlour plugin framework I created for the Sorbet type checker.

I also enjoy electronics and embedded development, with my Delta Pico graphing calculator being a particular favourite.

Backports

Hi!

You and I had the same idea, to backport the new Ractor 😄

FYI I backport all features of Ruby that are backportable in my backports gem, this will be one of them.

I'm pretty much done, and I pass the Ruby tests (those that I can). I intend to make a release on Xmas day only, but I invite you to check it out in the meantime by using the ractor branch:

# in your Gemfile
gem 'backports', git: 'https://github.com/marcandre/backports.git', branch: 'ractor', require: false

# in your code:
require 'backports/3.0.0/ractor'
