Vim's runtime configuration files providing Ruby language support, including syntax highlighting, indentation, omnicompletion, and helper mappings. It is the canonical Ruby filetype plugin for Vim, maintained since 2003.

Use cases

• enable ruby syntax highlighting in vim
• fix ruby indentation in vim
• add omnicompletion for ruby in vim
• set up vim for ruby development
• ruby filetype plugin for vim

When to choose

• you edit Ruby files in Vim and want proper syntax, indent, and completion out of the box
• you want the canonical, battle-tested Ruby runtime files for Vim

When to avoid

• you use an LSP-based setup (e.g. ruby-lsp + a completion engine) and don't need Vimscript-based omnicompletion
• you expect rapid feature development or quick PR turnaround - the project is deliberately conservative and slow-moving
