2025 Report: Destructive Malware in Open Source Packages
Destructive malware is rising across open source registries, using delays and kill switches to wipe code, break builds, and disrupt CI/CD.

A nice looking button in RubyMotion that extends the UIButton class and adds a couple properties for easy styling.
Just pass a single hex value to backgroundColor and get a nice gradient button with a shadow.
You can also more easily set the borderRadius, font, textColor, and title for the button's label. Everything else works just like a UIButton!
I find it very easy to use Bundler to manage gems in RubyMotion.
Rakefile
$:.unshift("/Library/RubyMotion/lib")
require 'motion/project'
require 'bundler'
Bundler.require
Motion::Project::App.setup do |app|
# Use `rake config' to see complete project settings.
app.name = 'Testing'
end
Gemfile
source :rubygems
gem 'easy-button'
Run bundle install.
@button = EasyButton.alloc.initWithFrame([[10, 160], [300, 80]])
@button.backgroundColor = '#ff0000'
@button.borderRadius = 14
@button.font = UIFont.boldSystemFontOfSize(26)
@button.textColor = '#fff'
@button.title = "That Was Easy!"

Thanks to @seanlilmateus for the inspiration and a bunch of code from CoolButton!
