New Ring Book

[CalmoSoft]

Hello Mahmoud,

Will there be a book about the Ring Programming Language in the near future or later, and when can we expect Ring 1.28?

Hello Gal

Thanks for your questions :D

>> "Will there be a book about the Ring Programming Language in the near future or later"

I don't have such a plan, Ring already comes with good documentation & many samples.

Also, Using Claude Code we can develop Ring projects or ask questions about different samples.

Also, we have some research papers about Ring.

I think the current direction is more about libraries, extensions, packages and tools development (not educational resources).

>> "when can we expect Ring 1.28?"

No release date is planned for now

Each year we used to release 2 or 3 Ring releases

In 2026, we released Ring 1.25, Ring 1.26 and Ring 1.27

So, I don't feel it's necessary to have another release this year 

But if during development, Ring 1.28 becomes ready, we will release it (2026 or 2027)

 

Also, since Ring is free-open source, you can always build the latest version from GitHub: ring-lang/ring: A simple, lightweight, flexible, embeddable, portable and multi-paradigm dynamic programming language for developing applications, tools, and domain-specific languages

Hello Calmo

RE:  "... Will there be a book about the Ring Programming Language ..."

I doubt it. 

Mansour Ayouni's book to months of effort to write.

It sold very few copies.

It showed up on the Internet in the form of a  Pirate PDF copy

There was no reason to buy a physical copy of the book

The best source is the Ring Documentation PDF ---  RingDoc_1.27.pdf
