## What it is
A Ruby library for reading and writing files and spreadsheets in Google Drive and Google Docs. It wraps the Google Drive API with a simple session-based interface for uploading, downloading, and editing files and worksheets.

## Use cases
- read and write Google Sheets from Ruby
- upload local files to Google Drive
- download Google Drive files to disk
- update cell values in a Google spreadsheet programmatically
- list files in a Google Drive account
- sync spreadsheet data into a Ruby application

## When to choose
- you need simple Ruby access to Google Drive files or Google Sheets
- you want a lightweight wrapper instead of the full Google API client
- you are building Ruby scripts or apps that read/write spreadsheets

## When to avoid
- you want to build a Google Drive client app with full API coverage
- your project is not in Ruby
- you need real-time collaboration features or Drive UI integration
