All of the core Processing methods are available in Ruby-Processing, often in the standard Ruby under_score_fashion. So, the Processing API is a good place to start.

Processing has a wealth of pure-Java libraries for PDF export, video, audio, animation, typography, physics, raytracing, and many others. You can find the rest at the Processing Libraries Page, and download them and drop them into your library folder. Actually since processing-2.0 many libararies can be installed from the processing ide, but this only a subset of available libraries toxiclibs libraries for example are not included. Then there are rubygems....

To stay up-to-date with Ruby-Processing, as it develops, you can start "watching" the development branch for bleeding-edge developments

There's now a forum, kindly provided by the Processing folks. Come on in and join the conversation.

If you're just learning to code for the first time, Ruby-Processing includes many of the examples from Daniel Shiffman's Learning Processing, an introductory textbook.

A very simple Textmate Bundle was created to run directly your ruby processing project in textmate : link

Alternatively install the jEdit community download rp5.xml commando file and (create/run/watch/app/applet) all from within the jEdit ide/editor. Another option for vim users is to run the sketch you are currently editing :!rp5 run %, there should also be way of creating a repl.
